BR 1-13: The Missing Coins

"And he's playing in the wrong street. The tourists are near the Abbey." (Escott, 2006, p.3)


Pete and Carla are students. One day they look at some very old coins and stamps in a shop. Pete wants to buy some stamps, but they are very expensive.
Later that day some coins are missing from the shop and the shopkeeper wants to find Pete...

This story is retold by John Escott.
This is in the Penguin Readers Beginner. Its YL is 1.0, so it is written 1300 words (about 14 pages). This story is exciting and good, and I recommend you to read this book.
