Collins Big Cat Arabic Reading Programme - The moon, the traveller’s friend: Level 14

Paperback

Level 14 books build on level 13 by offering stories with more complex plots and with a greater number of chapters to encourage the development of reading stamina. Non-fiction texts use complex vocabulary and deal with challenging global themes. The style of language further reflects progression in the teaching of Arabic grammar, while still using largely familiar vocabulary and simplified concepts.

Saeed is travelling through the desert with his family. His dad Abdullah explains that they will be helped on their journey by every traveller’s special friend – the moon! Find out more about the cultural significance of the moon for the Bedouin people in this beautifully illustrated story.
