CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — Local author, artist and Armenian teacher Alik Arzoumanian has just published her fourth Armenian children’s book.
Բարեւ Կրիայ/Parev Grya (Hello, Turtle) is about a little tortoise experiencing the four seasons.
“I am very excited about this book. Tortoises are my favorite animals, and I love drawing them,” said Arzoumanian. “This book has gone through many iterations over the past 15 years. I am so thrilled to finally witness its release.”
Arzoumanian, a teacher at St. Stephen’s Armenian Elementary School in Watertown, Mass., strongly believes in preserving and promoting the Western Armenian language, which motivates her publication of Armenian books specifically designed for young children.
Like her previous offerings, Parev Grya features Arzoumanian’s delightful and vibrant original illustrations.
Parev Grya is available for purchase online through Studio Alique. It will also be in-stock at Abril Bookstore, the NAASR bookstore, the Hairenik Bookstore and the Armenian Museum of America.
