The Last Photo

Longman Easystarts is a series of low level readers designed for students who are just starting to read and who want to read books which are simple but not childish. The stories are considered particularly suitable for students starting English at secondary school. The language level is pitched lower than Longman Structural Readers Stage 1 (which has a basic vocabulary of 300 words) and the structures, sentence length and vocabulary are carefully controlled. Each page of the book is made up of 2/3 of illustration and 1/3 of text, and the illustrations should facilitate and reinforce comprehension as well as making the books attractive to students. There are questions at the back, and an accompanying cassette is available which contains readings of all six stories in the series. The story of this book revolves around the time when Pam and Martin go sight-seeing in Cambridge. Martin tries to take a photo of Pam and accidentally photographs a man who is wanted by the police.
