You can even choose a bookplate with your name on it or dedicated to a loved one.
A favorite resource of many LitNet tutor-learner pairs are easy readers books from the Who HQ Books which includes the following series:
Who Was?
What Was?
What is the Story of?
These nonfiction series cover incredible stories of various trailblazers, pioneers, and legends, as well as important events. Easy to read, they provide rich content for tutors and adult learners to discuss while learning and improving their English language skills.
