PanARMENIAN.Net - Popular fairy tales are Armenianized in five-book
series of children's books - containing "Hagop and the Hairy Giant"
(Jack and the Beanstalk), "The Gurabia Man" (The Gingerbread Man), and
"Little Red Hood and Kesh Kayl" (Little Red Riding Hood) - available
for purchase on Amazon.com or ArmenianKidBooks.com, or from Armenian
book retailers across the United States and Canada.
The books are written in Arm-English (English with some Armenian
words) and offer a fun way to teach children about Armenian language
and culture, in a familiar story setting. A glossary of Armenian
words and pronunciation guide is included to help readers learn the
meanings of the Armenian words and to pronounce them correctly.
The two last books in the series will be available in fall 2011
and include "The Three Little Karnoogs" (The Three Little Pigs) and
"Voski and the Archoogians" (Goldilocks and the Three Bears). All
five books are also being published in Western Armenian and will be
available for purchase by the holiday season 2011.
The author, Talene Dadian White, is an Armenian American currently
living in New York with her husband and two children. Talene's writing
of Armenian children's books is inspired by her love of her Armenian
heritage and her desire to keep it alive in her children and Armenian
children everywhere, The Armenian Weekly reported.
