Babe is a little pig who doesn't have a real mother. He lives with Farmer Hoggett's sheep-dog, Fly, who looks after him like one of her own children. Babe must learn how to talk to sheep before the British Sheep-dog Trials - and before Mrs Hoggett turns him into Christmas dinner! The Sheep-Pig by Dick King-Smith has been made into a hugely popular and successful film called Babe. Recommended for younger learners.

Penguin Readers
Penguin Readers is a series of simplified novels, film novelizations and original titles that introduce students at all levels to the pleasures of reading in English. Originally designed for teaching English as a foreign language, the series' combination of high interest level and low reading age makes it suitable for both English-speaking teenagers with limited reading skills and students of English as a second language. Many titles in the series also provide access to the pre-20th century literature strands of the National Curriculum English Orders. At the end of each book there is a section of exercises focusing on vocabulary building, comprehension, discussion and writing. Penguin Readers are graded at seven levels of difficulty, from 'Easystarts' with a 200-word vocabulary, to Level 6 (Advanced) with a 3000-word vocabulary. In addition, titles fall into one of three sub-categories: 'Contemporary', 'Classics' or 'Originals'.
