About the Book

A collection of eight entertaining short stories with a twist in the tail, by a popular author, including a useful glossary for Welsh learners.

Review :
English review follows Mae Tocyn Lwcus yn cynnwys wyth stori fer wedi eu hanelu at y dysgwr, gydag unrhyw eiriau anodd wedi eu gosod mewn geirfa ar ddiwedd pob stori. Nid yw pob un o'r storïau wedi eu lleoli yng Nghymru; tywysir y darllenydd i leoedd megis Chicago Al Capone i gyfarfod Signora Basini a'i dau fab, ac i Salamanca yn Sbaen i ganfod sut mae serch yn blodeuo rhwng Bob Rees a Linda King. Gwella Cymraeg y dysgwr yw pwrpas y straeon byrion hyn, ond mae’n rhaid iddynt fedru diddanu'r darllenydd hefyd, neu fel arall – er gwaetha'r bwriad – bydd y dallenydd yn colli diddordeb. Mae'r storïau – gan fwyaf – yn llwyddo i ddiddanu, yn enwedig stori Ken Mathews a Llew, y ci mwngrel, mae'n ei achub, ac yn ceisio'i hyfforddi i ddelio gyda sefyllfaoedd yn ymwneud ag anifeiliaid eraill, ceir, lorïau a bysiau. Nid oes unrhyw un o'r storïau'n hynod o hir, sy'n hwylus iawn i ddysgwyr gan mai dim ond hyn-a-hyn o eirfa newydd y gall rhywun ddygymod â hi mewn unrhyw gyfnod o amser. Byddai'n ddefnyddiol petai'r wybodaeth ar gefn y llyfr yn defnyddio'r un fformat â'i du mewn gan ei fod yn disgrifio rhai o'r themâu sy'n cael eu defnyddio yn y storïau – geiriau megis 'unigrwydd', 'balchder' a 'chenfigen' – geiriau fyddai'n cael eu cynnwys yn yr eirfa peten nhw'n ymddangos yn unrhyw un o'r storïau. Heblaw am hyn, fel dysgwr Cymraeg, roedd hwn yn llyfr y gwnes i ei fwynhau! Helena O’Sullivan * * * Tocyn Lwcus consists of eight short stories aimed at the Welsh learner, with any difficult words listed in a vocabulary at the end of each story. Not all of the eight stories are set in Wales; the reader is also taken to places such as the Chicago of Al Capone to meet Signora Basini and her two sons, and Salamanca in Spain to see how romance blossoms between Bob Rees and Linda King. Reading these short stories is of course meant to improve the Welsh learner's language, but they also have to entertain, as otherwise - despite the best intentions - the learner may fall by the wayside. The stories are - in the main - entertaining, particularly that of Ken Mathews and Llew, the mongrel dog he rescues, and whom he is trying to train to cope with situations involving other animals, cars, lorries and buses. None of the stories are particularly long, which is helpful for a Welsh learner as there is only so much new vocabulary which can be absorbed in any time frame. It would be useful if the back cover text used the same format as the inside, as it describes some of the themes which are used in the stories. Words such as 'loneliness', 'pride' and 'jealousy', that - had they been used in each of the individual stories - would have been included in the vocabulary. Apart from this, as a Welsh learner, this was a book which I enjoyed!
