Monster in your language

On Saturday 28.11.2015 the reading of the book No! Said Little Monster by Áslaug Jónsdóttir.

The language groups of Móðurmál translated the book into their languages –or used the existing translations– and bilingual children read in their languages for the visitors.

This time thirteen languages were represented: Icelandic, read by the author, Latvian, Czech, Lithuanian, Slovak, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Norwegian, Euskera (Basque), Catalan, Polish and Filipino.

The youngest readers were of preschool age. Special thanks go to 7-year-old Elín who read the whole book in Lithuanian.

We thank both children and adults for participating, the author of the Monster books Áslaug Jónsdóttir for her support, and Gerðuberg for providing the space and technical equipment.
