The Lucky Grain of Corn

Soro’s parents give him a lucky grain of corn, but when he leaves it on a stone a bird steals it. Soro runs to catch up with the bird, and meets many friendly animals and people along the way. When Soro finally catches up with the bird, he learns that magic is not always where we think it is. This is an excellent dual language reading book, as whilst supporting the learning of English it makes pupils aware of other languages and cultures and highlights the value of community life. Suitable for ages 1 and up, with text in Turkish and English.
