Alex: Jane.
Jane: Yes?
Alex: Can you help me?
Jane: Certainly. What's the problem?
Alex: I need your advice. I've read all the books we have at home.
Now I'm going to the local library because I want to borrow two
or three books that I can read during our school holidays. Can you
think of any good books? I want some really good stuff.
Jane: What kind of books do you prefer? Do you read adventure novels or detective stories?
Alex: No, in fact, I enjoy historical novels a lot more.
Jane: Have you read Alexandre Dumas ?
Alex: Of course, I have. I have only just finished "The Count of Monte
Cristo" .
Jane: I see. Let me think .. . And do you like Walter Scott?
Alex: I do. I read "Ivanhoe" some years ago and ... Well, that's it.
Scott sounds like a good idea. What novels by Scott are the best?
Jane: I personally like "Quentin Durward" . It's set
in France in the fifteenth century. You are sure to like it.
Alex: Good. I've put it down. What else? One book isn't enough.
Jane: If you like Walter Scott, why don't you take something else by
him? "Rob Roy'', for example. Rob Roy was known as the "Robin
Hood of Scotland", and the book describes him and his adventures.
Alex: Great. Are you reading anything interesting now?
Jane: I'm reading another English classic - "David Copperfield" by
Charles Dickens and I love it.
Alex: I don't think that I like Dickens as much as you do ... but ...
well, he's not bad. Thanks for your help, Jane. I knew you would
give me good advice.
