    <![CDATA[Four short stories of murder and mystery, in which Edgar Allan Poe wrote about terrible people who lead strange lives. &quot;Penguin Readers&quot; is a series of simplified novels, film novelizations and original titles that introduce students at all levels to the pleasures of reading in English. Originally designed for teaching English as a foreign language, the series' combination of high interest level and low reading age makes it suitable for both English-speaking teenagers with limited reading skills and students of English as a second language. Many titles in the series also provide access to the pre-20th century literature strands of the National Curriculum English Orders. &quot;Penguin Readers&quot; are graded at seven levels of difficulty, from &quot;Easystarts&quot; with a 200-word vocabulary, to Level 6 (Advanced) with a 3000-word vocabulary. In addition, titles fall into one of three sub-categories: &quot;Contemporary&quot;, &quot;Classics&quot; or &quot;Originals&quot;. At the end of each book there is a section of enjoyable exercises focusing on vocabulary building, comprehension, discussion and writing. Some titles in the series are available with an accompanying audio cassette, or in a book and cassette pack.  Additionally, selected titles have free accompanying &quot;Penguin Readers Factsheets&quot; which provide stimulating exercise material for students, as well as suggestions for teachers on how to exploit the Readers in class.]]>

    <![CDATA[Four short stories of murder and mystery, in which Edgar Allan Poe wrote about terrible people who lead strange lives. &quot;Penguin Readers&quot; is a series of simplified novels, film novelizations and original titles that introduce students at all levels to the pleasures of reading in English. Originally designed for teaching English as a foreign language, the series' combination of high interest level and low reading age makes it suitable for both English-speaking teenagers with limited reading skills and students of English as a second language. Many titles in the series also provide access to the pre-20th century literature strands of the National Curriculum English Orders. &quot;Penguin Readers&quot; are graded at seven levels of difficulty, from &quot;Easystarts&quot; with a 200-word vocabulary, to Level 6 (Advanced) with a 3000-word vocabulary. In addition, titles fall into one of three sub-categories: &quot;Contemporary&quot;, &quot;Classics&quot; or &quot;Originals&quot;. At the end of each book there is a section of enjoyable exercises focusing on vocabulary building, comprehension, discussion and writing. Some titles in the series are available with an accompanying audio cassette, or in a book and cassette pack.  Additionally, selected titles have free accompanying &quot;Penguin Readers Factsheets&quot; which provide stimulating exercise material for students, as well as suggestions for teachers on how to exploit the Readers in class.]]>
