Reviews for Kurdish Sorani Dictionary and Phrasebook Romanised

A victorian tale that Kellogg has retold in simple slightly old and quaint language, surrounded by funny bright illustrations. It is a complicated old-fashioned story that takes place in a world in which a gentleman falls in love with the daughter of a farmer. The farmer and his wife are delighted but prove, on further acquaintance, to be rather dumb-witted. The gentleman promises to return and marry their daughter when he finds three families sillier than they are. This he proceeds to do, and after an accident in the cellar, which leads to him getting drunk on his wedding night - is found to be the silliest of the lot. Eight to ten year olds, reading to themselves should find the idiotic antics of 'The Sillies' quite appealing. (Kirkus UK)
