Review

...it is ideal for learners in the early stages of learning and would provide a good motivational exercise for children who are learning Gaelic... Audio of the text is available - in good, clear Gaelic - free of charge on the publisher's website. Learning Gaelic should be fun, and this small, attractive book fits that bill.
