Name Book in Cyrillic characters

[asel]

Hi all,

We are trying to bring up our daughter bilingual, but since we live in England, we have more books in English, rather than in Russian. I have desided to make a soft book using cyrillic characters and animal pictures.
This was inspired by many talented craftsters who have made soft books before and shared pictures and tuts. Thank you.

Front:


First page. M for myshonok (mouse)


E for esh (hedgehog)


L for lev and lyagushka (lion and frog)


I for iguana


N for nosorog (rhinoceros)


D for dinosavr (dinosaur)


A for akula and albatros (shark and albatros)

I love this, it is completely adorable! I especially love the shark

I don't know if you have heard of this, but if you want to raise your daughter bilingual make sure you check out Cheburashka! There are little claymation movies with him and everyone speaks Russian, and it has English subtitles. My boyfriend speaks some Russian and introduced me to Cheburashka and I so love it

Ok... this is awesome! Beautiful and educational

Hi SusanSummerland,

Yes, I grew up on Cheburashka. It was on of the favorites when I was a child. We have a dvd with the whole origincal cartoon. Actually, thank you for remining me about this, I will include Cheburashka in my next project. :-)

Thank you all for such nice comments.

Asel.

This is lovely, Asel! Hard to choose a favourite page, but I think the dinosaur with the flowers is very special!

Thank you all for your comments. I can definitely say that my daughter enjoys the book. We always read it together and she is very respectful of the book, the only part where she wants to shew it is the rhinos horn. She always goes for it.
