Hello,

was wondering if anyone knows of a thai book that is in both english and is in thai. im thinking of buying a book such as harry potter, a thai version and english version, but if theres a book that already comes with both in one, would be great! thanks

I have seen a few of them at SE-ED shops, essentially classical novels or short stories.

SE-ED are libraries that you can find in every supermarket or commercial center in Thailand.

if you google "thai bilingual books", you will get many results like :

"library" in French is actually "bookshop" in English. In English, a library loans books, it doesn't sell them. But I think this is your only English mistake, Claude.

Right, Pensive ! Thank you very much for correcting that mistake... Seems that I am now forgetting what I have learnt at school many years ago... hope you are fine and please correct me again when needed !

[The Se-ed "e-shop" can be found here http://www.se-ed.com/eshop/ . You will probably need someone to help you order.]
