A lovely picture book to hold and read, this particular retelling is well worth having in KS2 - it's absorbingly told with beautifully coloured illustrations supporting the flow of the story. Typographically, the two languages are very well set and clerly defined (Albanian is written in roman script too) by different fonts, the Albanian text being very slightly larger and bolder. (Available in 21 dual language editions, English only, big book format and on audio CD.)
