My 1st Book of Bengali

This picture book is mainly produced for English speaking children to have fun with pictures and words using Roman and Bengali alphabets. It should encourage them to learn and appreciate the Bengali language. Though most of the book can be followed without prior knowledge of Bengali, it helps if someone with a good knowledge of the language can guide young readers. Adult learners will also find it useful. This is not a comprehensive "Teach yourself Bengali" but a pre-school picture book of fun. Originally it was created for Olga Prothoma, Arthur Sobuj and Edith Mohima by their Dadu the grandad. Now it is made available for all children.
