An Interactive Story
The river comes for the houses tonight. Build the wall along the lane and hold it till first light.
A story where you are the hero — and every choice turns you to a new page. Written for people learning English, at your level, with meaning in your language whenever you need it.
You are the hero
Not a course. A world you choose your way through.
The river has been rising for two days, and tonight it comes over the bank into the low street by the water — just as old Nora Kettle falls at her back step and cannot get up. Building the sandbag wall down the lane, and holding it, is on you now. You have until first light to keep the river out of the homes, against a flood that will not stop. What you do next is yours to choose — and the English bends to your level while you read.
Every choice turns a page
Branching sections, twelve endings to find. Read it again and the story goes differently.
A2, B1 or B2 — you decide
The same story, three depths of English. Move up when you’re ready; nothing is dumbed down.
English Reading Adventures
A standalone story. One of many.
Every English Reading Adventures book is its own world — its own night, its own look, read on its own. When you’ve found your way through this one, another is waiting in the library.
The story begins. The next choice is yours.
