Never interested in learning Persian, Mona Kiani was a Farsi School dropout. Resisting the persistent nag of her Persian parents, she evaded learning Persian despite her parents insistence. Fast forward a two decades. She's pregnant with her son. Realising she cant read and write Persian! She searches the recesses of the internet looking to find bilingual resources to help facilitate her sons learning. Her search was in vain. NOTHING. Englisi Farsi was born out of necessity. An Iranian Australian mother set on embracing her rich Persian heritage. Created with love for the Iranian diaspora; these books are designed to make learning Persian fun, interactive and relevant for the needs of mixed Iranian families today. Covering a wide variety of topics, they are an ideal platform to engage & inspire young minds. To nurture bilingual language development with a little [Kuchulu] help from the English alphabet. Persian. Pass it on. Carly is happiest when reading a novel with a cup of tea, or explaining the Persian alphabet to her Iranian husband. Noushin is a driven and creative mum who has an avid interest in Iranian broadcasting and gardening. Noushin is an incredible artist and has an heavenly Persian chanting voice. She is also a veteran pianist. We are so grateful for her time and contributions to Englisi Farsi Persian Books

I HIGHLY recommend these AWESOME new books! If you know anyone who is speaking Persian to their children or wants them to learn Persian words but cannot read in Persian, this series solves their problem!There are so many reasons I love these books: 1) Persian/English/and Finglisi (complete with pronunciations!)2) Beautiful illustrations3) Great for beginning readers-simple text.4) There's an app to help with pronunciation.5) Useful website with a wealth of information for parents of Persian language learners.6) A book about virtues...I've been looking for that for years and so grateful to have finally found one...in Persian!7) Attention to detail...very well done!
