Publishing books for the children of Papua New Guinea.
Buk bilong Pikinini has published 18 titles to date. The picture books and readers have been created to ensure PNG children can recognise themselves and their culture in the books we publish.
NEW READERS - ‘WHEN I GROW UP’ SERIES
With this series, Buk bilong Pikinini seeks to inform children about what is required for becoming different professions. Not all children have the opportunity to come to work with their parents or understand what it takes to become an engineer, a banker or a pharmacist. It is vital for them to understand why they need an education.
The readers feature children who have attended our Early Childhood Education program and role models from the different companies where the professions are selected from. We are aiming to create a ‘mini library’ of professions which include a Store Manager, Farmer, Pilot, Teacher, ICT Officer, Paramedic, Banker, Pastry Chef, Pharmacist, Heavy Equipment Operator, Engineer, Nurse and Architect. We will producing more this year to ensure we the children see all the exciting opportunities they have and have something to aspire to.
The readers target children in the 4-8 age group - the language is simple with large text type. The readers showcase the children on the “job” in PPE. The readers feature beautiful pictures from Papua New Guinea with ample visual clues inserted for more difficult words.
Please view the video below to see the children in action as we produce the readers:
