This book is about two brothers, Ge Ge and Di Di, doing ordinary things at home, such as making messes, playing, eating, and getting ready for bed, all while with their large, friendly elephant tags along.
The illustrations are simple yet detailed enough to keep your children’s attention, and each page includes everyday vocabulary connected to what’s happening in the illustration. The words are color coded across languages, and there are small vocabulary lists that encourage kids to point, notice, and engage with the scene. It’s the kind of book that naturally invites conversation like: “Can you find the cup?” “Where’s the elephant now?” “What do you think they’re doing?” This makes it fun and inviting, while teaching the language, and it’s something you can explore together at your own pace.
Ge Ge and Di Di’s Big Day With Elephant would be a great book for families raising bilingual or multicultural kids, parents who want to introduce another language naturally, or really just anyone looking for a calm, engaging read that supports connection during story time.
You can find Ge Ge and Di Di’s Big Day With Elephant available for purchase on Amazon or in a local book store near you. Also check out Green Cow Books on Instagram and Facebook as well as greencowbooks.com
