Extensive reading improves fluency and there is a real
need in the ELT classroom for contemporary graded material that
will motivate students to read.
This Robin Hood reader is based on an episode from the popular BBC series,
where the legend of Robin Hood is updated for a 21st century audience.
Robin Hood and his men live as outlaws in Sherwood Forest. They
fight corruption and injustice - both of which appear in large
measure courtesy of the self-interested Sheriff of Nottingham.
When Robin and the outlaws uncover the Sheriff's latest scheme
to buy Saracen slaves, they decide to foil his plans. Will Robin
save the slaves, outwit the Sheriff, and win the prestigious silver
arrow competition?
