Lingo Dingo and the Dutch Chef

Learning Dutch for children has never been more fun!

Following on from the success of the wildly popular The Fabulous Lost and Found and the little Dutch mouse, bestselling author, and writer on the Emmy Winning Tales of Peter Rabbit, Mark Pallis returns to make learning Dutch for kids and children even more fun!

"Lingo Dingo loves to help. Anyone. Anytime. Anyhow...." In this heartwarming story, Lingo helps a friend make a special cake. There's just one problem. The Chef only speaks Dutch.... What could go wrong!?!

This heartwarming English Dutch kids book:

           Blends an English language story with over 50 Dutch words and phrases so that children learn Dutch without realising;

           Builds a child's confidence in engaging with a new language;

           Cements the foundation of a lifelong love of the Dutch language.

And now with the follow up bilingual Dutch English story, Lingo Dingo and the Dutch Chef, you can learn another 50 Dutch words and phrases!

This book uses the unique Story Powered Language Learning method work to help children learn Dutch without realising it. 

Unlike other Dutch English books for children, or traditional bilingual Dutch English childrens books (or bilingual Dutch English kids books), this Dutch language learning book for kids is different. We take a fun character, Lingo Dingo, who kids will love, and then we put her in a tight squeeze, where she needs to figure out the meaning of the Dutch words and phrases in the story in order to help save the day. Kids will be so busy laughing that they don't realise they're learning.

Message from the Author

I am passionate about learning languages. There is something special about that sense of connection you get when you talk to another person in their mother tongue. The expression 'they really spoke my language' really captures that magic feeling. So unlike other Dutch childrens books, this book makes Dutch for kids fun. I really wanted to focus on words and expressions that would make people smile. Imagine the joy on the child's face when they say that special phrase to a native speaker! They'll feel so proud, and you will too!

with my best wishes,

Mark Pallis
