The Three Little Howlers (Hmong-English)

The Three Little Pigs retold with howler monkeys in a Central American rainforest, printed with Hmong and English on the same page. It is a Language Lizard title, from a publisher whose whole business is issuing the same picture book across dozens of language pairs, and Hmong is one of the pairs — which is why a familiar folktale shows up here in a Hmong edition at all. Do not come for Hmong content: the story is not Hmong and does not pretend to be. Come for the thing this catalog is short of, a bilingual book at picture-book quality that a Hmong-speaking parent and an English-reading child can share without either of them working from a translation in their head. Pairs with The Three Little Sun Bears, the same retelling relocated to Asia. For ages 4 to 8, and for dual-language classrooms.
