About this title

Synopsis

Each book in the "Longman Imprint" series is designed to satisfy coursework requirements for GCSE examinations. Short stories, plays and novels are chosen for their accessibility to young readers and include many of today's major authors and playwrights. The material is designed to reflect both male and female interests and an awareness of our multicultural world. Each book includes points for discussion to encourage students to consider alternative ways of looking at the play or story, and a section on suggestions for writing which gives pupils the chance to respond to what they have read through imaginative writing, dramatic reconstructions and the traditional critical essay. "The Diary of Anne Frank" is the story of a Jewish girl and her life during World War II, told through the diary which she kept.
