Season's greetings! It's not long now until the end of term, but if you're stuck for a present for a student who studies A2 English Language (or AS if you're forward-thinkers), you might want to consider buying David Crystal's new book, The Story of English in 100 Words. Described as "an eye-opening tour of the English Language through the ages from Britain's leading linguistic expert", the book aims to explore the history of the English Language in an accessible manner. This topic is particularly useful for A2 students currently studying unit 3, 'Language Diversity'.
The Daily Mail has recently written a review of Crystal's new offering, and you can read this here.
The Story of English in 100 Words is available now in all good bookshops priced £12.99.
Nice post:)
