Description

Classics, modern fiction, non-fiction and more. Written for secondary and adult students the Oxford Bookworms Library has seven reading levels from A1-C1 of the CEFR.

There were stories of strange animals, wonderful cities, sweet spices, and terrible wild deserts where a traveller could die. One young boy listened, waited, and dreamed.

For young Marco Polo, later the greatest traveller of his time, a dangerous, exciting world was waiting... CEFR A2/B1 Word count 6,700
