Hello! My name is Michael, and this is my secret diary. Well, it’s not really a secret, because I want you to

read it. This is my story, but it’s also everybody’s story. Look at the picture on the front of this book. That’s me! I’m going to school, and I’m not very happy about it.

The other children are not very kind to me. But I’ve got a very special friend who always helps me. Do you want to know more? Well, open the book and read it. I hope you enjoy it.

In this reader you will find:

- a section focusing on bullying

- a section focusing on The London Zoo, The Natural History Museum, Hyde Park

- a glossary of difficult words

- comprehension activities

- an exit test
