Three Men in a Boat (Adaptation)

Oxford Bookworms Library

By: Jerome K. Jerome, Jennifer Bassett - adaptation

Narrated by: Charles Collingwood

I like work. I find it interesting . . . I can sit and look at it for hours. ’With ideas like this, perhaps it is not a good idea to spend a holiday taking a boat trip up the River Thames. But this is what the three friends - and Montmorency the dog - decide to do. It is the sort of holiday that is fun to remember afterwards, but not so much fun to wake up to early on a cold, wet morning. This famous book has made people laugh all over the world for a hundred years . . . and they are still laughing. An Oxford Bookworms Library reader for learners of English, adapted from the Jerome K. Jerome original by Diane Mowat.
