روبن هود. اللص النبيل, يسرق من الأغنياء الأشرار ليعطي الفقراء المساكين.

أحد قصص التراث الإنجليزي, وهناك احتمال كبير لأن يكون شخصية حقيقية.
**
كان روبن هود وأصدقاءه يطعمون الأغنياء على مائدتهم مقابل المال, أما الفقراء فيسردون لهم القصص كثمن. وهي الفكرة التي استعارتها سوزان كولنز لإحدى شخصيات ثلاثية "مباريات الجوع"

قرأت نسخة مختصرة من القصة, لأن العمر أقصر من أن أحيط بكل الروايات الكلاسيكية السابقة التي فاتتني. وأنا أريد فعلاً أن ألم بهم.

Nie oceniam jej, bo po pierwsze wolałabym ocenić pierwotną wersję, a po drugie jej poziom nie jest kierowany do mnie. Sięgnęłam po tę książkę, chcąc przeczytać coś bardzo luźnego po angielsku, ale w efekcie denerwowały mnie te proste i krótkie zdania.

Robin Hood - Liz Austin (2001)
[Penguin Readers Elementary (Level 2)]

Genre: Fiction/ EnglishGradedReaders/ Historical Fiction
Pages: 40
Rating: 7.5/10

Theme: Brotherhood/ Family/ Redistribution of goods from the rich to the poor

Opener:
“The Robin Hood stories are very famous. Most people know that Robin lived in Saxon and Norman times. He robbed rich people and gave the money to poor people. But not everybody knows that he came from a rich family. And not many people know that Robin Hood was half- Saxon and half-Norman.”

Summary:
When the evil Sheriff of Nottingham discovers that Robin Hood, the popular robber of Sherwood Forest, is really the land-owning Robin Fitzooth of Locksley, he devises a plan to catch him at his wedding to Marian Fitzwalter. But, as always when cornered by the sheriff, Robin uses his superior skill and cunning to evade capture. However, he cannot now return to his lands, and becomes an outlaw. He settles in the forest of Sherwood with a band of trusty men. King Richard supports him and restores Robin’s land. Richard dies, his brother John ascends to the throne and once more Robin finds himself pitted against the sheriff. Inevitably he escapes, but not before receiving a mortal wound. He dies and is buried in the forest of Sherwood.

Final Review:
These Level Two stories are a lot better told than the Level One and Easystarts one. It feels good to get back to these stories told in 40 odd pages.

If you wanna start read in English language, you should definitely pick this one up. It isn't hard to read and on the end, you even have a little test. I didn't like it so much, but didn't hate it either. But if you wanna some good, long and mainly interesting Robin Hood story, find another one.
