Penguin Readers Level 4: It's Not Summer Without You (ELT Graded Reader) by Jenny Han

Penguin Readers is an ELT graded reader series for learners of English as a foreign language. With carefully adapted text, new illustrations and language learning exercises, the print edition also includes instructions to access supporting material online.

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.

It's Not Summer Without You, a Level 4 Reader, is A2+ in the CEFR framework. The text is made up of sentences with up to three clauses, introducing more complex uses of present perfect simple, passives, phrasal verbs and simple relative clauses. It is well supported by illustrations, which appear regularly.
It’s Not Summer Without You is the second of three famous books about Belly and her feelings for Conrad and his brother, Jeremiah. Conrad is now at college, and he and Belly are dating. But, Susannah is very ill and Conrad loves his mother very much. Is this the right time for him and Belly?
