LET'S READ CLASSICS


Classic tales for children are a fundamental part of our
history. They have evolved over the years from oral tales
told by the fireside to carefully illustrated stories with
printed words becoming works of art for children to share
with others or to savour on their own.
Helbling Young Readers Classics embody and promote
universal moral values – values that are timeless and
increasingly more important in our rapidly changing world.
By reading Helbling Young Readers Classics children
will be captivated and fascinated by stories they may
know in their own language. This will further facilitate
comprehension and understanding, turning the chosen
title into an important tool for language learning.

‘I see. But why did he talk about a rat, then?’ I asked.


Sherlock Holmes took a piece of paper from his pocket and
put it on the table.
‘This is a map of Australia,’ he said. He put his hand over part
of the map. ‘Now, Watson, what can you read there?’ he asked me.
‘ARAT,’ I read.
‘And now?’ Holmes moved his hand.
‘BALLARAT,’ I read.
‘Yes. That was the word the man said. It is a place called Ballarat.
His son only heard the ‘rat’ part of the word. Old Mr McCarthy was
trying to say where his murderer was from, the town of Ballarat.’

My dear sister,
Something strange happened to us this week. Our ship was surrounded by ice and
a thick fog. When the fog lifted, in the distance we saw a very large man on a sledge•
pulled by dogs. He was travelling away from us. This was amazing because we were
several hundred kilometres from land and other civilisation. The next morning the ice
broke up, and while the sailors were getting ready to sail, they saw another man on a
piece of ice! The man was frozen, thin and very tired. We immediately invited him to
join our ship, but he said he first wanted to know where the ship was going. We told
him we were going to the North Pole and he agreed to join us.
He said he was following someone who had run away from him. I told him about
the very large man we had seen the day before. He became excited and asked me lots
of questions. Then he told me his story, as a warning• to me and to all men. So now,
dear sister, I will tell you the story that the man told me.
