I hume you is neither an easy-reader nor literature reserved for native speakers - the story contains, not only the 5000 most used words in English, but also practice in the 20 most needed grammatical structures - all this in one flowing story.
Since it was first published in 2001, countless readers the world over have benefited from the original style, which compromises neither information nor entertainment in its quest to improve English language skills. The exploits of Seb, Charlotte and Tom are described in a journey taking in the landscape of humour, emotional decisions and supernatural experiences that will inevitably end in an accumulation of vocabulary and language skills of the type often glossed over by traditional methods.
Each chapter in the story focuses on a certain aspect of English, the missing word format is used throughout the story. Occasionally you will be able to fill the gaps straight away, sometimes you will need to read the whole sentence or paragraph to grasp the context, and other times youll simply have to cheat and look up the answer! Whichever route you take, you will be improving your comprehension of English and taking in a spellbinding story.
If I hume you were a simple textbook, you would be denied Gordon Reynoldss intriguing story. If it were just a novel, there would be no missing words linking to the interactive exercises.
