Eggs and Chicken: The Wisdom of Hens in Portuguese and English by Meghan Towner

Description: Eggs and Chicken by Meghan Towner, Katie Bradley, Caroline Kurtz A pair of egg-related proverbs are illustrated and translated into indigenous Ethiopian languages as we discover what sometimes happens if you put all your eggs in one basket or count them before they hatch. The easy to understand pictures support the text and provoke conversations about patience, waiting and being careful. Side by side text in English and Portuguese supports emerging young bilingual readers and charming illustrations capture young attentions. Clear illustrations help develop vocabulary terms and word recognition. Part of the Ready, Set, Go! series of early readers by Open Hearts Big Dreams, a nonprofit devoted to increasing literacy in indigenous Ethiopian languages.Open Hearts Big Dreams Ready Set Go (OHBD-RSG) Books were created to help increase the literacy rate in Ethiopia through giving readers books with stories in their heart languages, full of colorful illustrations with Ethiopian settings and details. Profits from book sales are used to create, print, and distribute more OHBD-RSG books to kids in Ethiopia, Africas second most populous country. Ethiopias population has a high percentage of children ages 0-14. Only a small percentage attend pre-school or kindergarten, and the adult literacy rate is around 50%.Some of our books are based on wise Ethiopian sayings that often rhyme in Amharic. If an adult says the first half, many children can chant the second half. Sometimes the meaning of these sayings is clear. Sometimes it has to be puzzled out and argued over. But sayings and idioms and proverbs help people express truths and beliefs in unusual ways. Other books are based on STEAM topics, cooking, colors, counting and more.Since late 2017, OHBD has published over 150 unique OHBD-RSG bilingual titles in a number of Ethiopian, African and global languages plus English and has plans to publish more titles and add more languages. New titles or languages are added monthly; follow our author page to get new release announcements. Open Hearts Big Dreams Fund (OHBD) is a 501(3)(c) not for profit organization that believes the chance to dream big dreams should not depend on where in the world you are born. Our mission is to inspire and enable youth in Ethiopia through Literacy, Innovation, Inclusion and Leadership Projects in collaboration with individuals and organizations in Ethiopia and globally.
