Título: “The Growing Pains of Adrian Mole”

Autor: Sue Townsend

Lectura graduada:            Sí                   Nivel : 4

Idioma: Inglés                     

Sinopsis:

This book is the sequel to “The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole” and was written by the same writer, Sue Townsend.
It is based on the problems of a teenager who grows up in a difficult social environment. At first all his problems were about girls (he had fallen in love with a girl who didn’t like him so much) and also about the school. But he also had problems at home, problems he didn’t even know about. His mother was pregnant and also was his neighbour, and her father was the father of both.
It’s a very funny novel, despite all the problems that surround the main character, so I recommend it.

Tipo de fondo: DVD
Nivel: Avanzado

The year is 1795 and young Jane Austen is a feisty 20-year-old and emerging writer who already sees a world beyond class and commerce, beyond pride and prejudice, and dreams of doing what was then nearly unthinkable - marrying for love. Naturally, her parents are searching for a wealthy, well-appointed husband to assure their daughter’s future social standing. They are eyeing Mr. Wisley, nephew to the very formidable, not to mention very rich, local aristocrat Lady Gresham, as a prospective match. But when Jane meets the roguish and decidedly non-aristocratic Tom Lefroy, sparks soon fly along with the sharp repartee. His intellect and arrogance raise her ire - then knock her head over heels. Now, the couple, whose flirtation flies in the face of the sense and sensibility of the age, is faced with a terrible dilemma. If they attempt to marry, they will risk everything that matters - family, friends and fortune.
