Reviews

This is a must-read classic story for children that shows people sometimes focus too much on their own worlds and seem silly. It is well retold by the author of this version, and is written in easy English according to the CEFR level 1. The book is well illustrated and the way letters are arranged makes the typeface design clearly legible. Another important plus point is that it includes a QR code to scan and listen to the story online in British or American English. * Language Learning Literature Award judges *
