These two series have been designed to supplement all
English courses.
Both series have been graded in three key stages:
Stage 1
Stage 2
Stage 3
Children will love these beautifully illustrated readers
which motivate young learners to explore English as a
foreign language. These series enhance receptive skills by
reading and listening, and gradually introduce the
development of productive skills through the
accompanying activities and the production of each story
as a play (optional).
The stories themselves have been carefully selected and
present a great variety of classic and original tales, all of
which have something more to teach than the language
itself. The excellent illustrations and fully dramatised audio
CDs stimulate the learners’ imaginations and the
accompanying picture dictionary items help them make the
association between word and meaning.
Each reader set consists of:
■ a full-colour reader with an activity section at
the back and removable scripts
■ an audio CD
The Teacher’s Edition includes the Pupil’s Book, directions
for the staging of each story as a play, tips on
how to make the props and costumes easily
and cost-effectively, as well as drama
activities which can be used before each
rehearsal so as to prepare learners for the
wonderful world of drama.

It was the year 1867. Some
sailors said that they saw a
dangerous, giant monster
living in the cold waters of the
ocean. Some ships tried to find
it and kill it, but they never
returned. People said it looked
like a whale.
“It was 300 feet long and a
mile wide!”
“Water came out of its back. It was like a big underwater
explosion!”

SIMON DECKER
& THE SECRET
FORMULA
Jenny Dooley
Simon heard a woman scream,
then a gunshot. There was
another shot and the sound of
glass breaking. Simon fell to the
floor and crawled towards the
kitchen. Rocky was in there,
barking and jumping at the
kitchen door. Simon held Rocky
in his arms to keep him quiet,
then he listened.
A car door opened and closed, then the car drove quickly away.

“Beauty, I love you. Do you love

are kind, but I don’t love you.
And I don’t want to marry you.”
At this the Beast let out a roar
of anger and pain. “Why don’t
you love me? Am I so ugly?!” he
shouted at the terrified Beauty

Acrisius could not see it, but
there was a thin opening in the
rock in front of the Priestess,
and something like white
smoke was coming out of it. It
was the message Apollo was
sending her. The Priestess
listened to the smoke as it
moved past her, and she
waited until it left before she
spoke. “The only child you and
your wife will have is the one you have now. You will not have a son,
but your daughter will. You must be careful of this child because one
day he will kill you.”

Express Publishing Showtime Readers is a brand new series of books at six levels, which introduces
students to classic children’s stories in English, using a unique approach with special emphasis on dramatisation.
From the page ...
Students first enjoy the story as a reading text in several two-page episodes with beautiful illustrations.
Each episode is accompanied by language activities to help comprehension and consolidate learning.
... to the stage
The same story is then brought to life as a complete musical play which students can perform at the end
of the school year.
Each reader includes a biography of the author, a brief summary of the plot, character descriptions
and a picture dictionary. The accompanying audio CDs provide a fully-dramatised recording of both the
reading text and the play, together with all songs, incidental music and sound effects.
The Teacher’s Book includes a key to the reading activities, plus the playscript with full stage
directions, sheet music and lyrics for all the songs, as well as detailed suggestions about
choreography, set design and construction, costumes and more.
For classes without sufficient time to stage a full production of the play, there
are charming cutout characters to be used in a ‘puppet theatre’
presentation. Full colour characters can be downloaded from
www.expresspublishing.co.uk.
