Book Review:
This is a simplified version of Dick Francis's thriller ''The Danger,'' published as Level 4 (Intermediate - 1700 words) in the Penguin Readers series. Designed for English language learners, the story follows Andrew Douglas as he investigates a series of kidnappings in the horse-racing world. The first victim is a famous jockey in Italy, then a small child in England, and another victim in the United States. Are the same people behind all three kidnappings? Andrew Douglas looks for the man behind the crimes, and his search leads him into increasing danger. The book includes an introduction and activity materials to aid comprehension, making it ideal for classroom use or self-study. This is an excellent way for intermediate English learners to enjoy a full-length thriller while improving their reading skills.
