A level 1 Oxford Bookworms Library graded readers. Written for Learners of English by Jennifer Bassett.

The President is dead!

A man is running in the night. He is afraid and needs to rest. But there are people behind him – people with lights, and dogs, and guns.

A man is standing in front of a desk. His boss is very angry, and the man is tired and needs to sleep. But first he must find the other man, and bring him back – dead or alive.

Two men: the hunter and the hunted. Which will win and which will lose?

Long live the President!

THE PRESIDENT’S MURDERER

Felix is a good policeman, and the Chief of Police wants him to find a murderer. A very important murderer – the man who murdered the President. Felix must find the murderer quickly and bring him back – dead or alive. He works day and night, drives up and down the country, and asks a lot of questions.

But some questions can be dangerous. It is better not to know the answers. And dead men, of course, cannot ask, or answer, questions…
