Thigibh is èistibh ri sgeulachd Bhradan an Eòlais a th’ air bratach Alba Nuaidh … sgeulachd Fhionn MhicCumhail agus an t-adhbhar a bhios e a’ deothail òrdag!
Bidh an t-ùghdar Terri M. Roberts agus Eimilidh NicEòghainn bhon fhoillsichear Clò a’ Bhradain a’ leughadh na sgeulachd, sa Bheurla agus an uair sin sa Ghàidhlig. Chaidh an sgeul aosmhor seo ath-sgrìobhadh le naoi faclan sònraichte, agus gnìomhan a thèid leotha. Fhad ’s a tha an sgeul ga leughadh, faodaidh an luchd-èisteachd na gnìomhan a dhèanamh nuair a chluinneas iad na faclan iomchaidh!
Bidh Terri is Eimilidh cuideachd ag innse mar a thàinig bratach Ghàidhlig Alba Nuaidh gu bith, agus a’ sealltainn dealbhan ùr àlainn dubh is geal le Kyla Williams à Halifax a tha san dàrna fhoillseachadh dhen leabhar.
Tha an tachartas seo iomchaidh airson gach aois is gach ìre fileantais sa Ghàidhlig.

Come hear the story of the Salmon of Knowledge on the Nova Scotia Gaelic flag … also known as the tale of the great Gaelic hero Fionn MacCool and why he sucks his thumb!
Author Terri M. Roberts and Bradan Press publisher Emily McEwan will read this tale aloud, first in English and then in Gaelic. This ancient tale has been reimagined as a participation story, with actions corresponding to nine different words in the story. As the story is read aloud, everyone can listen for these special words and do the matching gestures together!
Terri and Emily will also share from the book about Nova Scotia’s Gaelic flag, and show Halifax artist Kyla Williams’ new black-and-white illustrations for the 2nd edition.
This is an all-ages event. All levels of Gaelic are welcome.
