Words Of My Life (كلمات من حياتي)

This innovative book is designed to help children take their very first steps toward reading and writing by introducing the Arabic alphabet through a phonics-based, child-friendly approach.

Why Parents & Educators Love It:
• Mother-tongue-based learning → built on the idea that children learn best when they begin reading in the language they speak and understand naturally—the Egyptian dialect
• Strong foundation for literacy → once children master reading in their mother tongue, they can smoothly transition to reading in any language that uses the same alphabet, including classical Arabic
• Carefully selected vocabulary → more than 300 words chosen to be familiar, meaningful, and shared between colloquial and contemporary Arabic
• Evidence-based approach → shows that comprehension must come before decoding; children understand the words, so they learn to read faster and more confidently
• Rich visual learning → each letter is presented through a full illustrated scene containing multiple words beginning with that letter
• Bridges dialect and standard Arabic → highlights many words that people assume are colloquial but actually exist in Modern Standard Arabic, supported by the Dictionary of Contemporary Arabic Language

Age / Stage / Use Case:
Perfect for early learners beginning their reading journey at home or in school. An ideal resource for parents, teachers, and anyone supporting early literacy in Arabic.
