Descrizione dell’editore
A Step 1 Green Apple graded reader, retold by Benjamin Anderson. When Robinson Crusoe tells his parents he wants to go to sea they don’t want him to, but he ignores their wishes and joins a ship. This is just the beginning of his many adventures at sea, which end with him being shipwrecked on a desert island.

• A wide range of interactive activities practising the four skills
• Dossiers: The Atlantic Slave Trade and The real Robinson Crusoe:
Alexander Selkirk
• KET-style interactive activities and Trinity-style interactive activities (Grade 3)

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Newly abridged by Timothy Meis, James Fenimore Cooper's The Last of the Mohicans comes to life under the paintbrush of N.C. Wyeth, with illustrations originally published in 1919. The artist offers readers a close-up view of the French and Indian War, in paintings such as British colonel Duncan's struggle against a Huron warrior or the Mohican Chingachgook similarly fighting off another Huron warrior in the clearing of a wood. Wyeth's paintings also accompany Meis's adaptation of Daniel DeFoe's Robinson Crusoe, due out in February.
