A graded historical-biography reader for building English comprehension

Part of the Oxford Bookworms Library, this Level 2 edition presents a historical biography in controlled English, with a 700-word vocabulary target. The 64-page paperback is structured as a reading-skills resource as well as a narrative text: an opening introduction provides context, while illustrations and glossaries support understanding along the way. Activities placed before, during, and after the reading give learners opportunities to check comprehension and work with the material beyond the main text. The emphasis is on accessible language and confidence-building practice within a historical subject.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • English learners developing early reading confidence
  • Students using graded readers with vocabulary support
  • Ages 9–12 interested in historical biography
