Description:

Dylan is an American boy like many others. One thing makes him special, though: his parents come from other countries and speak to him in different languages. It’s his birthday today and he received a very unusual present, only to lose it shortly after. Together with his best friend Emma, a sweet bilingual girl born to South African parents, Dylan sets out to find his lost birthday present. During their search, the two friends learn about the value of friendship, of speaking more than one language, and of appreciating one’s own as well as other’s cultural and linguistic background.

If you are looking for a children's book that will help your child see the value in speaking other languages and hopefully get more excited about learning one, this book is a great choice.

The Portuguese spelling reflects currently orthographic rules for Portuguese (Brazil).

Resumo em português:

Dylan é um menino americano como muitos outros. Uma coisa o torna especial, no entanto: seus pais vêm de outros países e falam com ele em outras línguas. Hoje é seu aniversário e ele ganha um presente bem diferente, apenas para perdê-lo logo em seguida. Junto de sua melhor amiga, Emma, uma doce menina bilíngue filha de pais sul-africanos, Dylan tenta encontrar seu presente de aniversário perdido. Durante sua busca, os dois amigos aprendem sobre o valor da amizade, de falar outras línguas e a valorizar tanto sua própria herança cultural e linguística quanto a dos outros.
