Korean Editions!
Where Do Polar Bears Live? Note the adorable polar bear face on the first character of the title.
Just before Christmas, the Korean editions of my two Let’s Read and Find Out titles arrived on the doorsteps (dropped by Santa’s sleigh, no doubt). Here’s what Where Do Polar Bears Live? and What’s for Lunch? look in their snazzy new Asian editions.
A translated title is always a kind of giddy and bewildering joy. It’s recognizably my book and yet I can’t read a word of it. I can’t even identify my own name. The title of Where Do Polar Bears Live? has transmogrified from a question to an exclamation–why is that? Who knows? It’s kind of fun to feel four years old again and primarily interact with a book through the illustrations.
What’s For Lunch?
