Cada niño tiene una historia. Deja que la escriba.

We moved to Auckland from Korea and English felt like a lot for her at first. Finishing one small story a day gave her something she could feel good about, at her own pace.

We speak Mandarin at home, so I worried English would feel like homework. She treats it more like making her own book, and usually asks to do it herself.

In Korea, English can feel like one more thing to study. This feels like play — he's making his own book, not taking a test, and he asks to do it himself.

I wanted less passive screen time and something he'd actually finish. He's proud there's a real book with his name on it — and he's picking up more words along the way.
