No space for hate. Chan eil àite ann airson na gràine. ❤️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Bradan Press staff took the morning off to attend a counter-protest today in Halifax, as did many people from coast to coast in Canada. We were there in support of LGBTQ+ children’s human rights and SOGI education (age-appropriate sexual orientation and gender identity education) which we are privileged to have in Nova Scotia schools, delivered by caring & dedicated teachers. Parents do not own children. All children, including LGBTQ+ children of course, have human rights in Canada. Canada ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1991. https://www.canada.ca/en/canadian-heritage/services/rights-children.html #halifax #novascotia #canada #transrightsarehumanrights

MÍLE BUÍOCHAS / MÌLE TAING / A THOUSAND THANKS! 🥰🍁☘️🌹 🌟🔥😍 With your help, the crowdfunding goal for AN RÓS FIÁIN has been reached! WHAT HAPPENS NEXT: 1) The Kickstarter campaign ended officially last night (Sunday). Backers' cards should have now been charged for the amount of your pledge. 2️) Please put "notification@kickstarter.com" in your e-mail contacts list, so you don't miss future communications from us via Kickstarter! Also, CHECK YOUR SPAM just in case! 3) Some time later this month, you will receive a VERY IMPORTANT "backer survey" from Bradan Press via BackerKit. You'll need to answer the survey to confirm your reward(s) and give us your preferred email and/or shipping address for delivery. 4) If you're receiving a physical reward--one or more paperback books--this is also where you will pay separately for shipping. See the sample rates at the bottom of the main Kickstarter project page. 5) As soon as possible in October 2023, we will finish lettering and proofreading AN RÓS FIÁIN, upload the print files to our print-on-demand services, and create the ebook (digital) version. 6) Backers will receive an email with links to their digital reward(s), and if applicable, a notification that their physical rewards (paperback books) have shipped. ❓ The process of backing a Kickstarter can seem weird if you've never done it before. If you have any questions, please reach out to us! Contact us through Facebook messages or our website: bradanpress.com/contact #KickstarterReads #irish #gaeilge #indiepublishing

We are so pleased to share a cover reveal for Catastrophe at the Christmas Ceilidh; Kate the Highland Dancer is back for another adventure! A sequel to our previously published book, Disaster at the Highland Games, this time, Kate is excited to perform her first solo in the Christmas ceilidh. But as she waits her turn backstage, she starts to fear a CATASTROPHE! Kate’s imagination runs wild as she pictures every possible mishap in vivid detail, from forgetting her choreography to knocking over the Christmas tree. But at the last moment, she remembers the encouraging words of her dance teacher, and leaps and twirls to the audience’s delight. Whimsical watercolour illustrations by Nathasha Pilotte complement award-winning author Riel Nason’s rhyming verse, with a reassuring message for every dance student.

Today, Bradan Press is revealing the cover of Lugh and the Fortress of the Gods! With this book, we bring an Irish myth retold as a participation story with gestures corresponding to nine action words, making it perfect for reading aloud. This exciting story is about when Lugh of the Long Arm grew up, he went to King Nuada’s fortress on the Hill of Tara to try to take his rightful place among the gods and goddesses there. But when Lugh arrived at the fortress, the guards wouldn’t let him in unless he could prove that he had a unique skill. Lugh had many skills, but would any of them be enough to get him into the fortress of the gods?... This book will also help to teach Irish (Gaeilge) language awareness. It contains three versions of the story: the first in English, the second in English with the nine action words in Irish, and the third entirely in Irish. After children become familiar with the all-English version, the second version with Irish action words can be introduced. The actions are the same in both versions, acting as a bridge from English to Irish. The all-Irish version is good for Irish language learners. With engaging black-and-white illustrations by the illustrator of Fionn MacCool and the Salmon of Knowledge. You can now preorder this book from our website or follow the link in the comments to learn more. Follow us on our socials to keep updated on this book, our latest news, and more! #NovaScotia #Gaeilge #irish #irishbooks #gaidhlig #gaelicns #Gaelic #gàidhlig #indypublishing

One of our resources for using our book Fionn MacCool and the Salmon of Knowledge in your classroom is our series of read-aloud and pronunciation videos on our youtube! This is the first video in our read-aloud demonstration series (See the link in the comments) of the action story Fionn MacCool and the Salmon of Knowledge by Terri M. Roberts. This is the first version of the story in the book, all in English. The story was read aloud to a combined class of grade primary (kindergarten) and grade 1 students (aged 5 and 6) in a Nova Scotia school. However, the book can be adapted for use in groups at any level from grade primary to high school and for a range of subject areas including Gaelic, English Language Arts, French Language Arts, Social Studies, and Arts Education (including drama and visual arts). Along with our video series, we have multiple resources on our website that can be used to help guide you through using this book with your students as well as using Gaelic in the classroom! This book is available in both English and French and both versions are available for purchase through our website as well as through the Nova Scotia book bureau. #Gaelic #GaelicBooks #NovaScotia #gaidhlig #indypublishing #gàidhlig #gaelicns #écosse #fionnmaccool

Teachers, start getting ready for the new school year by incorporating Gaelic into your classrooms using our book Fionn MacCool and the Salmon of Knowledge! This is the tale of the great Gaelic hero Fionn MacCool and why he sucks his thumb. It is also the story of the Salmon of Knowledge on the Nova Scotia Gaelic flag. More than just a book, this “lesson plan in a box” engages students through reading aloud, gesture, and movement, and comes with a variety of free online teachers’ resources: pronunciation and demo videos, activity sheets, and background information that teachers can use to facilitate inquiry-based learning. The book can be adapted for use in groups at any level from grade primary to high school and for a range of subject areas including Gaelic, English Language Arts, French Language Arts, Social Studies, and Arts Education (including drama and visual arts). The book contains two versions of the action story: the first is in English, and the second is in English but with the action words in Scottish Gaelic. After your students become familiar with the all-English version, the second version with Gaelic action words can be introduced. These actions act as a bridge to introduce Gaelic words and increase awareness of the language in your students. We have multiple resources on our website that can be used to help guide you through using this book with your students as well as using Gaelic in the classroom! This book is available in both English and French and both versions are available for purchase through our website. #Gaelic #GaelicBooks #NovaScotia #gaidhlig #indypublishing #gàidhlig #gaelicns #écosse #fionnmaccool

No space for hate in Canada. Chan eil àite ann airson na gràine ann an Canada. Bradan Press staff took the morning off to attend a counter-protest today in Halifax. We were there in support of LGBTQ+ children’s human rights and SOGI education (age-appropriate sexual orientation and gender identity education) which we are privileged to have in Nova Scotia schools, delivered by caring & dedicated teachers. Children, including LGBTQ+ children of course, have human rights in Canada. Canada ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1991. https://www.canada.ca/en/canadian-heritage/services/rights-children.html
