Pond/Pukur (English-Bengali)

Author : Anisha Thampy
Illustrator : Anisha Thampy

There are many creatures in and around this pond, and much that is happening! Bold, colourful pictures on the pages are labelled with words in two languages – one familiar, and a translation in a less familiar one – so that children can can string them to together to tell their own stories while they learn a language. A list at the end helps them remember the new words. This series of bilingual books encourages children to ‘Imagine Words’ and build vocabulary with the aid of pictures in a storytelling setting.

A standout series

The illustrations are a winner and make these books stand out... The big ‘googly’ eyes in the pictures in Pond make them come alive as do the bold strokes and the vivid palette. I couldn’t recommend these books enough—they are an absolute godsend for repatriated parents like myself struggling to help their children ‘fit in’ to their new surroundings and for expat ones wanting to keep their children in touch with their language and cultural roots...
