A little mouse walks into the Lost & Found, but can only speak Albanian. How will Mr and Mrs Frog figure out what the mouse is missing...? Aimed at children aged 2-7, the unique 'Story-powered language learning method' combines humour, story and emotion to gently and memorably introduce kids to 50 Albanian words and phrases. "The kids were so busy laughing they didn't realise they were learning." Kyle Buchannan, Dad of two, London. It's a bilingual Albanian English children's book with a difference, that helps lay the foundations of a love of languages.

How does the Story Powered Language Learning Method work?

Unlike a Albanian picture dictionary, traditional Albanian books for kids, dual language bilingual Albanian English children's books, Albanian learning books for kids, or other Albanian language learning book for kids, the Fabulous Lost and Found uses the 'Story-powered Language Learning Method' to teach children Albanian by tapping into a child's natural abilities. There are three steps: We create an emotionally engaging and funny story for children and adults to enjoy together, just like any of the other Albanian storybooks for kids. Studies show that social interaction, like enjoying a book together, is critical in language learning.Through the story, we introduce a relatable character who speaks only in the new language. This helps build empathy and a positive attitude towards people who speak different languages. These are both important aspects in laying the foundations for lasting language acquisition in a child's life.As the story in this Albanian picture book progresses, the child naturally works with the characters to discover the meanings of a wide range of fun new words and phrases. Strategic use of humour ensures that this subconscious learning is rewarded with laughter; the child feels good and the first seeds of a lifelong love of language are sown.
