The First 3 Years Are Everything
Between ages 0-3, your child's brain is uniquely wired to acquire multiple languages simultaneously, which means that your toddler is a young linguist!
She can absorb up to four languages as naturally as breathing, something that your adult brain simply cannot do. But this superpower doesn't last forever.
Young Linguist books are designed specifically for ages 0-3, at the peak of linguistic neuroplasticity.
What makes Young Linguist different from other bilingual books?
- 4 languages in one book (not bilingual - multilingual!)
- Choose from over 75 different languages, including regional variations and dialects
- Human-verified translations from real native speakers (no AI or Google Translate)
- Hand-drawn illustrations (no AI slop here)
- Premium, durable board book format = no torn pages
One image. Four labels. Direct neural pathways built during the most receptive period of your child's entire life.
Created by a Linguist
Mom
Hi, I'm Michelle Ashkelon - developmental linguist, fluent in 5 languages, and mom raising a quadrilingual toddler. I didn't just research childhood language acquisition in university - I'm living it!
Every day, I'm testing what works, debunking the myths (no, teaching 4 languages doesn't confuse children), and applying the research (yes, language stacking accelerates metalinguistic awareness).
The Young Linguist book exists because I needed it for Aria. I knew the methodology worked. I knew thousands of other families needed it too. And I knew no one else was going to create custom Russian-English-Hebrew-Spanish board book just for my daughter. So I made one.
And now, I make custom multilingual board books for ALL multilingual families looking to preserve their baby's unique linguistic heritage from Day 1.
This isn't theory or woo. It's what's working in my home, backed by developmental linguistics research and refined through real parenting.
With love and language,
Michelle :)
