This picture book offers native English speakers and ESL/EFL learners of all ages a fun exploration through similar sounding words with completely different meanings. It features word pairs chosen to help English learners whose mother tongue does not distinguish between the letter "l" and the letter "r" to practice their pronunciation. By showing English learners what native speakers hear depending on the "l" or "r" sound, Cloud Crowd demonstrates the difference that clear pronunciation makes to meaning and communication. Written by Melanie Taylor, a Japanese translator and interpreter with extensive ESL/EFL teaching experience, this book brings some of the most common pitfalls for Japanese speakers of English to life through beautiful artwork by Megan Tsen.
