Five Children and It Level 2 Oxford Bookworms Library
Nesbit, Edith
A level 2 Oxford Bookworms Library graded reader. Retold for Learners of English by Diane Mowat When the children dug a hole in the gravel-pit, they were very surprised at what they found. 'It' was a Psammead, a sand-fairy, thousands of years old. It was a strange little thing - fat and furry, and with eyes on long stalks. It was often very cross and unfriendly, but it could give wishes - one wish a day. 'How wonderful!' the children said. But wishes are difficult things. They can get you into trouble . . .

Our world is full of these kinds of problems. They make life interesting, and sometimes very funny. These five short plays show people trying to decide what to do in unexpected or difficult situations.

Mary Shelley

Treść książki zdradzi sposób, w jaki można pobrać niespodzianki – darmowe ebooki naszego wydawnictwa. Frankenstein - powieść angielskiej pisarki i poetki okresu romantyzmu Mary Shelley z 1818 roku. Pisarz science fiction Brian Aldiss uważa Frankensteina za pierwszą powieść science fiction lub przynajmniej zapowiedź tego gatunku. Powieść doczekała się wielu przeróbek i adaptacji filmowych, których większość zniekształcała lub spłycała pierwowzór. Pierwsza ekranizacja powstała w 1910, najsłynniejsza – w 1931, a jedna z najbardziej udanych i wiernych oryginałowi – w 1994. Powieść Mary Shelley nie jest bowiem, jak filmowe produkcje hollywoodzkie, prostym dziełem obliczonym na efekt grozy. Wymowa powieści obraca się wokół dylematu moralnego równania się człowieka z Bogiem-stwórcą, kwestią prawa stwórcy do decydowania o losach stworzonej przez siebie istoty oraz zasadniczego tematu: odrzucenia stwora przez ludzi, gdyż dla nikogo nie liczyła się jego bezinteresowność i dobre serce, a to ludzki strach, odraza i obrzydzenie uczyniły z niego prawdziwego potwora.
