Adventure at Haydon Point

Stage 2 Pre-Intermediate | 800 headwords | A2 | Flyers/Key

“It was all so different from London. The strangest thing was the light that came into his room.

It travelled across his ceiling and then it went, leaving his room dark. After a few seconds it was back, then it disappeared, again and again.”

One summer, city boy Sam stays with his uncle. It’s all so different from London! There’s a river and boats, and a new friend, Rachel.

But something strange happens… One day Sam and Rachel find a strange bird with a long beak that looks like a spoon. It has thin fishing rope round

its legs. It certainly can’t fly! And who are the two men in black?
