I am very disappointed with this - it doesn't make any sense and it is very repetitive. I would like a refund.
This is very confusing. It seems that it is for the film versions and the students don't actually read the book. I can't see how this resource is useful for a literature student. Unless I'm totally mistaken (I've written to the author but no reply) I'd like a refund please.
Hello,<br /> Where are the chapter 28 and 29 extracts for Miss Havisham?
Amazing as it's in line with the skills required for the new KS4 spec but at an appropriate level for KS3. Thanks so much!
You have saved me so much time; thank you! <br /> An excellent resource, superbly planned. <br /> Worth the money, most definitely!
