Nowhere Boy

Extensive reading improves fluency and there is a real need in the ELT classroom for contemporary graded material that will stimulate students. Nowhere Boy is based on the 2009 hit British film about John Lennon, the iconic musician growing up as a rebellious but gifted teenager in 1950s' Liverpool. The enduring global success of the Beatles and the continued interest in his life and music make this an appealing reader for older teenagers.
