Publisher's Synopsis
Türkiye, also called Turkey, is a country mainly in West Asia with a smaller part in Southeast Europe. It was home to two great empires: the Byzantine Empire and the Ottoman Empire. Its significance in the world remains to this day. Readers of this brightly designed volume will get to know modern Türkiye and its people, including what schools, clothing, sports, homes, and other aspects of culture are like. Comprehensible text is written with emerging, independent readers in mind, while simple maps and labeled images support key social studies and geography concepts.
