Hibbs, Linda,

My first book of Indonesian words : an ABC rhyming book of Indonesian language and culture / by Linda Hibbs ; illustrated by Julia Laud. - First edition. - 30 pages : colour illustrations ; 21 x 24 cm

Includes index.

A fun and playful introduction to Indonesian language and culture for young children. The familiar ABC rhyming structure combines with sparkling illustrations to encourage the natural ability of children to pick up new languages and vocabulary quickly. Words for things kids already know in English are joined by words specific to Indonesia, giving kids a glimpse into Indonesian life and culture. Everyday expressions - like "Apa kabar?" which means "How are you?" - give kids a chance to communicate in a meaningful way and show them that when it comes to courtesy and friendliness, other cultures have a lot in common with their own. Cultural and linguistic notes are added for the parents to enhance the Indonesian learning experience.
