A high-quality bilingual children's story in Estonian and English, ideal for bilingual families and kids who learn Estonian or English as a second language. The book has been translated by Mariette Aavik, an experienced literary translator who has translated the works of well-known authors such as Gerald Durrell and Noah Gordon (under her maiden name - Prii) and who has worked extensively for Estonian publishing houses like Eesti Raamat and Ersen, and also for the Estonian Ministry of Environment, The Tallinn Cultural Office and the Estonian Ministry of Culture. Sireliis Vilu, an Estonian philologist with a Bachelor of Arts in Estonian and Finno-Ugric Linguistics, proofread it. Nelly's Box has 40 pages, just above the industry standard of 32 pages, and 20-page spreads as an eBook on the Kindle app. Complimentary activities and lesson plans can be downloaded on the author's website.

Nelly is very excited about going back to school! She's bilingual and during this school year, she's going to learn how to read and write in her home language as well. Ms. Josie Journey, the Estonian language teacher, welcomes the children with a fun activity. Their first lesson in Estonian is all about practicing saying what they love!
