A Stage 2 title (containing a 750 word vocabulary) in a series which contains some of the best classic stories in a simplified version. The series is graded in four stages, each book includes an introduction to the author and story and exercise material (comprehension and discussion questions).
This book is an easy read but such a pleasurable one. It is a ripping adventure yarn with enough complexity and tension to compel you to gobble it up in a couple of sittings. Who should read it? Anyone who loves Victoriana and the golden era of gentlemen ‘at the club’. This book is fine reading for young and old and I recommend it highly.
