How it begins

"Cici Kelinci, Gaga Gajah itu temanmu, bukan?" tanya Mama Kelinci. "Kata siapa? Badannya saja besar sekali. Dia bisa membuatku gepeng hanya dengan satu injakan. Aku benar-benar tidak suka dia," kata Cici Kelinci sambil memberengut. "Kalau Ura Kura-Kura itu temanmu, bukan?"…

Reading together in Indonesian

• Read it aloud first, pointing at the pictures; then let your child “read” the pictures back to you.
• Ask open questions: what happened, how did the character feel, what would you do?
• Growing up with two languages? Talk about the story in whichever language feels easiest — the understanding carries over.
