Webster’s Word Power English Readers : Chosen Classics

Abridged and retold with notes and free audiobook

About this series:

Whether you are a student, or an English language learner, or just looking for something great to read in English, the Word Power English Readers are an informative new series of abridged, retold and annotated texts that capture the best and key elements of the novels on which they are based. They include character notes, author biographies and details about the time in which each novel was written. There is also a glossary of the less familiar words that appear in each book. The English used in the Readers is very clear and the elegance of the language will inspire calm in the reader. This series will help students of the novels, in their comprehension and interpretation, and students of English, who are looking to gain fluency in the English language.

Each book comes with an audio recording on a CD secured at the back of the book. The recording is read by an actor who speaks clearly and slowly for those less familiar with the English language. The book and audio recording can be used together to help students learn the correct pronunciation as they read and to improve their sight word recognition. Audio-assisted reading also helps to build fluency skills by allowing students to hear the tone and pace of a skilful reader.

The level of the Readers is B1/B2, and they are suitable for age 10+ because of story contentand theme. We recommend them to you strongly.
