Publisher's Synopsis
Lots of books explore topics such as Animals, Education, and Sports, but have you ever read about the person who received an elephant on her doorstep? the hard-working, uneducated woman who gave a gift of education to others? the two most award-winning tennis athletes who are also sisters? STORIES WORTH READING uses up-to-date, multicultural readings taken from news, feature articles, and authentic literature as a basis for engaging low-level readers. This communicative and academically-focused series systematically develops vocabulary and reading strategies through eclectic activities and exercises in all skill areas."
