[CALIBK12] TARGET: Korean bi-lingual books [XWall-MX]

[Lock, Mary]

Hi, Joanne - several years ago, from Permabound, I purchased a set of
picture dictionaries that get lots of use here, both from new students
learning English as well as many of my native English speakers who are
just curious, or who want to make friends quickly by learning some new
words.

 

The Korean Word Book by Marshall Pihl, as well as all of the others
(Filipino, Chinese, Vietnamese, Japanese, Samoan, Hawaiian) were
published by Bess Press in Hawaii.  ISBN for the Korean Word Book is
1-880188-53-8.

 

The Korean book has 231 entries, all illustrated by simple line
drawings, and is split up under chapter headings such as "Clothing,"
"Food," "Home," People," and "School."  

 

Hope this helps you!

We have a small collection of Spanish and Vietnamese books for our
transitioning students but just recently have had several "No English"
Korean students enroll. This is unusual for our area - generally the
Korean children here are fairly fluent in English. We need to have just
a few things on hand like a small selection of Korean/English books and
a bi-lingual picture dictionary would be nice. Any recommendations? I've
got a Shen's catalog at work, but thought maybe some of you already have
something specific to recommend.

Thanks!
