-- Adam Beck, author of "Maximize Your Child's Bilingual Ability" -- Shelley Admont, award-winning author, KidKiddos Books -- Nikki Prsa (American polyglot) ★ Dylan is an American boy like many others. One thing makes him special, though: his parents come from other countries and speak to him in different languages. It's his birthday today and he receives a very unusual present, only to lose it shortly after. Together with his best friend Emma, a sweet bilingual girl born to South African parents, Dylan sets out to find his lost birthday present. During their search, the two friends learn about the value of friendship, of speaking different languages, and of appreciating one's own as well as others' cultural and linguistic background. While reading this book, children will learn new words in different languages and feel like little polyglots! If you are looking for a children's book that will help your child see the value in speaking other languages, in being multicultural, and that will hopefully get them excited about learning languages, this book is a great choice. Dylan é un neno estadounidense coma os demais pero ten algo especial: os seus pais son de países distintos e fálanlle en linguas distintas. Hoxe é o seu aniversario e recibe un agasallo moi especial, que perde ao pouco tempo. Coa axuda da súa amiga Emma, unha doce meniña filla de surafricanos, Dylan comeza a buscar o seu agasallo. Na súa aventura, os dous amigos descubrirán o valor da amizade, de falar varias linguas e de apreciar a lingua e as culturas propias e alleas.
