Pingucan and the Simit Moon: Turkish Bedtime Audio Book (MP3 + PDF)
Pingucan and the Simit Moon (Pingucan ve Simit Kokulu Ay). Pingucan will not share his warm simit, until a moon that looks just like one and two tired seagulls change his mind. A sleepy ferry ride through Istanbul teaches the words one by one.
