Synopsis:

Beginner's English Reader is a delightful book designed to make English enjoyable for junior high school through adult students at the beginning level. Through 27 lively, self-contained vignettes, students are introduced to and follow the adventures of likeable and engaging characters. Culturally authentic and often amusing scenes are portrayed through dialogue, and students will enjoy seeing how various friends, families, neighbors, and other community members interact with each other. To make reading an enjoyable and manageable task for beginning students, Beginner's English Reader features simplified, but authentic language. The stories are written exclusively in the present tense, and the use of subordinate clauses is avoided. The vocabulary is of high frequency, and words are spiraled throughout to encourage mastery. To aid comprehension, each scene is illustrated with charming, light-hearted drawings. Each reading is followed by one or more exercises, including reading comprehension, vocabulary reinforcement, and sentence completion. A few word puzzles are included for motivation and enjoyment. Beginner's English Reader is an ideal resource that enables beginning students to have a successful experience reading, writing, and speaking English.
