For anyone who aspires to build their English skills, there could be no better teacher than Ruskin Bond, everyone's favourite wordsmith! This book contains a careful selection of excerpts from some of Ruskin Bond's favourite classics ranging from Christina Rossetti's 'Who Has Seen the Wind' and Robert Louis Stevenson's 'From a Railway Carriage' to Jonathan Swift's 'Lilliput and Its Laws' and Arthur Conan Doyle's 'The Mystery of the Test Papers', among many other equally powerful examples of fine English writing. Each text is accompanied by useful exercises and skill-building activities that will help build and test the reader's English skills.
