I loved the simplicity of the story and the xhosa words. I read stories to over 160 teachers who then in turn pass it on to the parents to share with the children. I give them activities to each story, so thank you for integrating the 2 languages.
So glad to hear you are valuing these stories enough to share with all your teachers, so glad we could be of help! See more of our Bookdash books like this one.
Good stories, can be improved by presenting the story in a book format where kids can turn the page by clicking on the book. Some stories on the FKB site are presented this way. Thanks for this bookservice.
