🐾 The Boy Who Talked to Animals
In this beautifully illustrated interactive storybook, young A2-level readers follow Oliver, a quiet boy who has always felt more comfortable with animals than with people. One morning, he wakes up and discovers he can understand every animal around him. A sparrow asks for help, a lost baby deer needs to find its mother, and a trapped dolphin is calling for rescue. Oliver uses his amazing gift to help them all, but he soon learns that the real gift is not talking — it is listening. Features 14 pages of rich A2-level narrative with embedded vocabulary tooltips, interactive flashcards, vocabulary matching, fill-in-the-blank exercises, and a 10-question comprehension quiz.
