Hello children,

A very famous man in Turkey is HODJA.  He is a wise old man and there are lots of stories about him.  You can learn a lot with his stories.  We brought one story when we went to Gebze, Turkey in October in the first Comenius meeting. 

Here you have a nice story with this character.  Maybe some of you will read one of his stories in Catalán.  you will see soon with Lorena.

The story is first written in English and then in Turkish, so don't worry if you don't understand all the lines!!!  Have FUN!!!
