Description
Samir and His Brown Trousers is a story about one child among many who have likes, dislikes, desires, fears, and secrets. However, their parents often fail to provide them with the freedom to explore their personalities.
This elementary-level Arabic reader aims to engage learners of Arabic as a foreign language while improving their skills and introducing them to Lebanon's cultural context. Before starting the story, you can prepare by answering pre-reading questions and studying the glossary. Each page in Arabic is accompanied by its parallel English translation, making it easier to understand unfamiliar words and phrases.
Post-reading activities will help you check your understanding and actively use vocabulary from the story. You can also make use of the accompanying audio track to improve your pronunciation and intonation, either while reading along or at a later time to assess your comprehension.
