In this collection of stories from magazines and newspapers the vocabulary and structures used have been controlled to match those of a typical beginning ESL course. At the same time the language aims to be natural and the readings are designed to be fun and spark classroom discussions. The pre- and post-reading exercises encourage comprehension through: vocabulary development; reading skills such as making inferences, understanding details, and recognizing cause and effect; cultural insights; and personalizing ideas and themes.

waking up every night to a voice saying “Come and catch me”!

being on a boat in the middle of the ocean in a terrible storm!

finding millions of dollars on a busy highway!

More True Stories, Third Edition, by Sandra Heyer, consists of 22 new or updated human-interest stories adapted from news sources around the world. The universal appeal of these believe-it-or-not stories ensures a pleasurable reading experience and encourages high-beginning-level students to read with fluency and confidence.
