Joan of Arc - George C. Woolard

She led France to victory
but Joan of Arc was to pay the ultimate price for her courage. Welcome to DK ELT Graded Readers. They explore aspects of the world around us
and show the different ways in which people live now. They give you material for reading for information
and reading for pleasure. You can use you English to do something real
and the illustrations will help you to understand the text
and the Picture Dictionary will help you understand the special words for this topic. You can also listen to the CD or cassette as well. DK ELT Graded Readers are a new series of readers for adolescent and young adult learners of English. They draws on the proven strengths of DK books for native speakers of English; an interesting approach to factual topics
clear
detailed illustrations
and a combination of education
information
and enjoyment. These same strengths are now available to teachers and learners of English. The levels have been chosen
for ease of use
to approximate to the various UCLES exams
and the readers can be used alongside the appropriate course book. The authors are practising ELT teachers and trainers with a special interest in the use of reading in and out of the classroom. The book is intended as a starting point
and is useful for discussions
workshops
and general practice.
