Animal Adventures

Seven illustrated picture books in one volume, written in fully vowelled Arabic with an English translation under every line. Made for children and beginners taking their first steps in reading Arabic, each page pairs a few short sentences with a full-colour picture and a word box that gives the key words with their plurals, feminine forms or verb forms, and their English meanings.

Inside: - The Hungry Worm: a little worm eats its way through an apple, a banana, a carrot and some bread. - The Monkey and the River: a bird, a turtle and a giraffe help a little monkey cross the river back to Mum. - The Monkey in London: a hungry little monkey explores London and is welcomed to a family dinner. - The Little Whale in the Sea: a whale who swam too far makes the whole sea laugh until Mum finds him. - The Cat Wants to Fly: a cat who longs to fly discovers she is a wonderful jumper, content with what Allah has given. - The Elephant Lost His Way: a young elephant follows his own footprints back to his family. - The Wolf Wants a Friend: a lonely wolf and a brave rabbit show that friends can be found in surprising places.

The stories begin with the simplest sentences and grow gently in length, so readers can move from one book to the next. Ideal for Muslim families, Arabic classes, weekend schools, homeschoolers, and any learner who wants to read real Arabic from the very first page.
