About this ebook
THE SONG OF ZONG takes you to a far place called the planet of Zong, where the people love to dance, play and sing. When a group of friends Fling Flong, Wing Wong, & Bing Bong, travel to adventurous places they communicate through song and dance.
Inspired by the love of hip-hop culture this story promotes linguistic curiosity through the eyes of aliens.
Through the influence of hip hop rhythms and poetry you can communicate using effective repetitive speech. Language development is paramount in early years of communication. The Song of Zong is a playful tale for making speech-building fun.
