So guys, I found my first and second grades' Finnish books! I think I'm going to teach you with them - some things. It would be easier if I could draw here, but if not then not. I'll just improvise.
Credits to Hannele Huovi, Mervi Wäre, Markku Töllinen and Kristiina Louhi!

The wise cat.
Samu: Tulitko sinä autolla?
Sisu: Tulin.
Samu: Tulitko sinä junalla?
Sisu: Tulin.
Samu: Sinä olet viisas kissa.
Sisu: Minä olen viisas kissa.

What did Samu and Sisu talk about? Can you guess?

Translation
Samu: Did you come here by car?
Sisu: Yes, I did.
Samu: Did you come here by train?
Sisu: Yes, I did.
Samu: You are a wise cat.
Sisu: I am a wise cat.

Yes, Sisu is a cat. Samu is the owner of the cat, but there will be twice as weird characters in these books, so not to worry!
