Cloud Crowd
A fun visual pronunciation book for English L and R
Concept + words by Melanie Taylor
Illustrations by Megan Tsen
Made for Japanese learners of English — and anyone who enjoys art and wordplay
English L and R sounds are especially challenging for Japanese speakers. Cloud Crowd makes these differences easier to notice by pairing minimal-pair words with clear, playful illustrations. One sound change. One meaning change. Instantly visible.
What This Book Is
Cloud Crowd is a read-aloud pronunciation practice book, not a storybook.
It presents 15 English minimal pairs (such as cloud / crowd) across 40 full-color pages, designed to help learners see, hear, and practice the difference between sounds.

Designed for reading aloud and repetition
