Oxford Bookworms Library Stage 3 Go, Lovely Rose and Other Stories
H.E. Bates
Retold by Rosemary Border
STAGE 3 - Human Interest
A warm summer night. The moon shines down on the quiet houses and gardens. Everyone is asleep. Everyone except the man in pyjamas and slippers, standing on the wet grass at the end of his garden, watching and waiting . . . In these three short stories, H. E. Bates presents ordinary people like you and me. But as we get to know them better, we see that their feelings are not at all ordinary. In fact, what happens to them - and in them - is passionate, and even extraordinary.
Could
this happen to you and me?

And this attention to detail shows - Oxford Bookworms are well known for their extremely reliable grading, which allows you to find the right book, no matter what your level. Being able to read fluently gives your language a lot of power and it's extremely motivating.
