The Canterville Ghost and The Model Millionaire

In the first of these two classic stories from Oscar Wilde, a 300-year-old ghost finds that the American family who have moved into the house he haunts are not quite the same as other families. In the second story, a nice young man meets a millionaire, but thinks he is a beggar. “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.
