I find it hard to believe it has been 4 years since the day I left Malta and moved to Norway. Where did the years go? My husband and I left Malta with a 3-year-old and a baby in the belly, and now the kids were old enough for me to leave them behind, and […]
Today I’d like to introduce you to one more fellow writer that I admire a lot. It’s rare to discover writers that have their very own, unique way of telling stories, and Kristine Hokstad-Myzyri is one of them. She’s the creator of the Kate the Kitty series for kids aged 1-6, and one quickly notices […]
Today I’d like to introduce you to Rita Rosenback whom I had the pleasure of meeting online a couple of years back while I was looking for experts to contribute to the guidebook “How to Raise Confident Multicultural Children”. Rita grew up in a bilingual household with a Finnish-speaking mother and a Swedish-speaking father in […]
In this blog post, I’d like to introduce you to some of the amazing authors -not everyone has been available- behind the 6-month-long collaborative campaign to support multilingual families. They’ve all been so kind to offer the ebook editions of many, if not all, of their books to download for free on the 1st of […]
AUTHORS COMMITTED TO GIVING BACK TO OUR MULTILINGUAL COMMUNITIES Hi friends, As you know, amongst the different things that I do, I write and publish bilingual books for children (for the ones who are new here, I’m Elisavet Arkolaki 🙂 ).

Hi everyone, I hope you’re doing well and enjoyed the Easter holidays :). Here, we’ve had our first round of celebrations, and now we’re getting ready for the Greek Easter. The kids have started school again after about a month of being at home (we’ve been amongst the lucky ones with schools open for the […]
Anzelika, a mum who read our journey with raising multilingual children, sent me the following email. I thought of replying via a blog post, with her permission, instead of a personal email as this might be of interest to more moms out there who find themselves in a similar situation. ‘Hi Liza! There are not […]
This is our story on how we managed to save our family’s minority languages, and how our eldest developed language skills in two additional languages. Intercultural and interracial marriages are on the rise according to studies, whilst more parents, particularly in USA and Europe, are adopting children from other countries. As a result, our communities […]
Today I’d like to introduce you to Yoshito Darmon-Shimamori, a language teacher and author who grew up bilingual French-Japanese in France, and currently lives in the UK. Yoshito’s decade-long professional experience combined with his personal bilingual journey has assisted him in teaching his trilingual sons to read and write in French and Korean (his wife’s […]
Good morning friends from the beautiful and -today- sunny Horten 🙂 ! I have some great news to share, and at the same time, I’d like to take this opportunity and thank you for loving and purchasing my books. The sales of my bilingual children’s books have been growing steadily in the more commercial languages during the last […]

Hello lovely people :), I hope this email finds you well. It looks like there won’t be any traveling outside of Norway for us this summer as we’re waiting to get vaccinated, so I’m going to accept that our reunion with family and friends outside of this country will need to be further postponed. I […]
