'Five ... four ... three ... two ... one. Happy New Year!'

There are parties, songs and fireworks at New Year in Britain. It's a fun night, and the start of a busy year. Why do people run through the streets with pancakes in February? Who wears red jackets on the Queen's birthday? When can you find money in your food? This book has the answers.

Do you want to learn more about British culture, and read in English at a level that's right for you? Then you'll love the Life in Britain graded reader series. The language in graded readers is carefully controlled so you can read it easily. And studies show that reading graded readers helps your vocabulary and grammar too.

The Life in Britain Graded Readers come in four different language levels. Each book tells you about a different part of British culture: places of interest, entertainment, literature, history, politics and more.

Are you coming to Britain for a holiday, for work, or for study? Or do you want to learn more about the place where the English language began? The information in these books will help you to connect with British people, understand British culture and stay motivated in your language studies.

Do you want British citizenship? These readers are the perfect first step, because they help you prepare for the Life in the UK Test.

The British Year is suitable for learners of English from A1 level (CEFR) – or Entry 2 (UK TESOL) – with a vocabulary of 400 words.

Helps to prepare for the Life in the UK test for British citizenship!
