Opis

Enthralling readers with books like "The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" and "Treasure Island", Robert Louis Stevenson is an enduring force in the world of fiction. This book presents three-week study plans with activities that should encourage children to: analyze features of text, concentrating on selected extracts; clarify their ideas by drawing comparisons with the writing of other authors; plan their own adaptation of a book after looking at existing film and graphic novel versions; and identify the difference between historical narratives in comparison to fictional representation.
