Incredible Job Salvin !!! This book brings back soooo much memories of my childhood back in my home country, Esp of our school days n growing up with our grandparents. Eventhough english is our second language, but we grew up learning other languages e.g. tamil n fijian our native languages. Reading this book, makes us realise that todays generation growing up in overseas are unaware of not only our cultures but the language itself. Many mock n laugh at how we speak but feeling proud of the FIJI BAAT we grew up learning n communicating. Proud of your achievement Salvin. Hearty congrats
