These 3 new Penguin Readers are simplified texts designed in association with Longman to provide a step-by-step approach to the joys of reading for pleasure.
About A Boy: a modern classic-a very funny story about a serious subject:love. It's also a popular movie starring Hugh Grant.
Gladiator: Maximus is a General in the Roman army who wishes to return home to his family after his last battle. But the new Emperor Commodus hates Maximus and kills his family. Soon Maximus is a prisoner,a slave, and finally a gladiator. When Emperor Commodus joins Maximus in the arena they fight for their lives.
The Full Monty: a very popular and funny British film! Gaz and five others decide to become strippers but none of the men has stripped before. Will these unlikely strippers dare to go for the "full monty"?
