Description
This series includes a range of titles suitable for children, teenagers and adults. "Longman Structural Readers" is divided into six stages and is graded both by structure and vocabulary, from beginner to intermediate. Within each stage the readers cover different subject matter - crime, romance, adventure, famous people and places etc in a variety of genres: short stories, fiction, non-fiction and plays. The majority of the titles are original pieces written specially for the series, but some simplified versions of existing works of literature are also included. Most of the books include comprehension exercises and a number are recorded either singly or with other titles on an accompanying cassette. This title is an elementary text which is part of Stage 2 of the series. The text and illustrations are designed so that together they help the reader to understand the meaning of the words. Stage 2 texts are designed to familiarize readers with the present, past, future and present perfect tenses and contain a basic vocabulary of about 500 words. The story concerns the Tall Man, who, whenever he commits a crime leaves behind a small card with the initials TM on it.
Nobody knows who he is, or what he looks like - except that he is over two metres tall. Kelly Logan reads about him in the newspaper on her way to London, but her thoughts are much more concerned with whether she will find a job and how she will get on with her cousin Adam and uncle Max...The author Stephen Rabley is also author of "Customs and Traditions in Britain" and "The Gold Lasso" which are also in this series.
