About English Audio Stories with Turkish Words

Stories told in English with Turkish words woven in, for children who understand more English than Turkish. Listen together at bedtime or in the car.

Little Adventures in Turkish Culture is a series of illustrated audio stories for ages 3 to 8. In The Great Turkish Breakfast, the friends go to Anneanne’s house, where the whole table is covered with little plates. In The Simit Cart on the Corner, they follow the bell of a simit seller. The Bakkal on the Corner takes them inside a cozy corner shop, and The Midnight Simit Mystery sends them after a trail of sesame seeds. A new story is a small gift for a long car ride.

In Audio Adventures, Defne and Ahmet meet two warm Turkish phrases: kolay gelsin, “may it come easy”, and bereket versin. In Eylül’s Notebook, Season One, 10-year-old Eylül and the Roots & Talks characters collect the Turkish words that English never quite gave her. You can hear one of our stories, The Blue Bead, on our site, and browse all e-books and audio stories or Turkish bedtime audio books.
