“Tom! Tom! Where are you?” shouted Aunt Polly. “Where is that boy? When I find him, I’m going to...” Tom was missing again. Aunt Polly was again searching for him. Aunt Polly looked under the bed. Then she opened the door and looked out into the garden. She heard something behind her. A small boy ran past, but Aunt Polly put out her hand and stopped him. “Ah, there you are naughty boy! What’s that in your pocket?” “Nothing, Aunt Polly,” was the answer. “Nothing? It’s an apple! I can see it. Now listen, Tom. Those apples are not for you or me! They are…” “Oh, Aunt Polly! Watch out! Behind you!” Aunt Polly turned back and looked, and Tom was out of the house in a second.
Otto-Classics Graded Readers Series are outstanding classics written by famous writers. The language and vocabulary in the books are controlled and simplified by specialist ELT authors and compilers according to Common European Framework so that they can be easily understood by new learners of English. Depending on the eight levels from A1 to B2+, the longer stories are divided into a number of chapters and every chapter has its own activities. Some of the activities in the books are meant to be done in pairs. You may work with a partner to solve problems and design projects that reflect not only your own thinking but also new ideas you and your mates will discover by working in groups. |
