LAUNCH OFFER: Get this resource for 15% off until 1st May! Suitable for ALL exam boards A 10-page full novel summary guide with a plot summary of key events, key quotes and links to key themes. This is a really useful resource that provides the right balance of detail whilst being a succinct summary of the events in the novella. The highlighted links to themes throughout are ideal for students to quickly identify relevant points and quotes in order to refer to the text in further detail if needed, and ultimately build an impressive essay that shows examiners you have a solid awareness of themes across the text. Remember you need several quotes and examples nicely embedded to back up your points in an essay. I also use this for reference when teaching to find the relevant part of a text for further analysis, or relevant essay points, as it can be tricky to remember everything in your head!
