😠 Why Is Everyone Angry?
In this heartwarming A1-level storybook, thirteen-year-old Elif notices that everyone around her — her mum, dad, brother, best friend, and teacher — seems angry. But when she has the courage to ask each person how they really feel, she discovers that 'angry' is not the right word. Her mum is worried, her dad is sad, her brother is scared, her friend is exhausted, and her teacher is stressed. Elif turns her experience into a school poster project that changes how students treat each other. Features 12 pages with embedded vocabulary tooltips, interactive flashcards, matching, fill-in-the-blank, and a 10-question quiz.
