Titles include popular classics, exciting contemporary fiction, and thought-provoking non-fiction, introducing language learners to bestselling authors and compelling content. The eight levels of Penguin Readers follow the Common European Framework of Reference for language learning (CEFR).

Exercises at the back of each Reader help language learners to practise grammar, vocabulary, and key exam skills.

Before, during and after-reading questions test readers' story comprehension and develop vocabulary.

Ebenezer Scrooge hates Christmas. He is angry that people are not working. Then, he meets the ghost of his old partner, Jacob Marley.

Can Scrooge be a good person before it is too late? A Christmas Carol, a Level 1 Reader, is A1 in the CEFR framework.

Short sentences contain a maximum of two clauses, introducing the past simple tense and some simple modals, adverbs and gerunds.

Illustrations support the text throughout, and many titles at this level are graphic novels.
