A mother's mission

Targhil was born from a gap many families face. In Montreal, a Lebanese mother searched for bilingual children’s books in Lebanese dialect written phonetically and found none. What began as a personal challenge grew into a mission to create books that help families everywhere preserve and celebrate the Lebanese language and culture.
