Has Anyone Seen My Chook? - Sparklers Asian Stories

Hazel is late for school because she can't find her pet chook. Loki, the chicken boy, can't help her and neither can her grandparents. The day is becoming a disaster. And all the while, the sea is slowly flooding her island home… This new full colour Asian stories are contemporary tales set across Asia and the Pacific. Students follow characters their own age in their local environments - at school, at home, in the village, visiting local landmarks - so they can observe everyday life in another culture. How are their lives different to mine? Who works in their families and how? What are their everyday challenges? With a window onto the social and cultural norms of our near neighbours, these books are valuable tools to build both literacy skills and cross cultural understanding. Each beautifully illustrated book includes photography of the local setting, an illustrated glossary, country map and key country statistics, map of the story's narrative structure and comprehension questions.
