Synopsis
Author's Note
This book is inspired by the phenomenon of homophones in the English language, and it is written as a fun picture book that is easy for children to read about words that have the same sound but different meanings in different languages.
There are many languages in the world we live in. We use language to communicate with others in our daily lives, at school, at work, or when traveling. In English-speaking countries where immigrants are predominant, it is common to encounter the use of various home languages besides English as the “official” language.
Learning more than one language is not easy, but knowing a certain language means understanding its culture, and it is important in terms of knowing and valuing your roots.
This picture book tells the fascinating story of homophones being used during conversations among a first-generation Korean father and a first-generation Japanese mother who immigrated to Canada, a 1.5-generation older brother, Josh, and Hannah, who was born in Canada. The “same” word is used with completely new meanings depending on the linguistic and cultural backgrounds of the characters, and the story is conveyed with beautiful illustrations and interesting anecdotes.
Young readers of this picture book may have had a similar experience, or younger readers may find it helpful to understand their multicultural family and friends. In addition, this book encourages children from immigrant families to take pride in using their native language and to value their own culture.
We recommend that you, the readers of this picture book, try to find other words like “eye” that have the same sound but different meanings in your surroundings, and we hope that you have a fun time doing this activity.
