Na Gàidheil

I hope this is the first in a series because it was the first time I found a book that taught some Gaelic and how to pronounce it.
The pictures were lovely
I look forward to reading other books by this author.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.

This small educational children's book is particularly interesting as it's aim is to start teaching Gaelic to children. I did not know any Gaelic and I find it very useful for adults too! This language is not easy to grasp and this is a great idea to try and make its teaching simpler.

This is a charming introduction to Scottish Gaelic for children. Due to the simplicity, I think this one would work best for roughly 5-7 year olds.

This was such a cute introduction to Gaelic! The illustrations were adorable and the words for the family are a great introduction for any young child to learn. I wish that there had been a bit more about words that young children would need to know early on, such as "milk" or "hungry" and the like. But for a language that is hard to learn and with such few resources, I was glad to see this being published!

An interesting little book. The illustrations are bright and colorful, and should be appealing to little ones. We learn the words for different family members, numbers one through twenty, and several other Scottish Gaelic words and Scottish place names. There are pronunciation guides for each word, and tips on how the phonetic spellings should be pronounced. While this is geared more toward children in the United Kingdom, it would be good for any child interested in other languages.

This book is so magical my children fell in love with it. I did too! It was fun and beautiful and we all actually learned quite a bit! I hope there will be more of these soon!
