HELP! HELP!
story Sandhya Rao illustrations Proiti Roy
‘Help!
Help!’ calls the big black ant when the little black ant
falls into the water. But the only answers it gets are ‘crokk’,
‘isspiss’, ‘aaaanh’, ‘cheek’, ‘miyawwwwn’ and ‘woaw’. Who
will save the baby? Unusual sounds add excitement to a
familiar pattern in this folktale-based story.
The sometimes onomatopoeic,
sometimes alliterative, sometimes rhyming words that add
flavour to the story stretch the concept of bilingual
translation. The result is a parallel set of onomatopoeic,
alliterative or rhyming words in another language that
enrich the child’s vocabulary and approach to language.
