I am a ESL 4 student now. I want to read more to improve my English. However, some of reading are too hard for me. They just make me bored and nothing more. Therefore, I wonder some novels (for documents download or books ) with a simple English for ESL learner.
Like a series of books : Penguin Reading.

Thank you everybody.

How to go about reprinting articles with permission in my ESL textbook?

Rob L asked:


I’m writing a grammar/writing textbook, and would like to include some snippets of stories and articles from other books or magazines. Most textbooks do this, and include a section crediting the photos and text reprinted with permission.

My question: are these reprintings generally paid for? How can I go about seeking permission? I’m self-publishing, and don’t have much money budgeted for buying rights to articles, but I want to put out a very high-quality product. Any insight would be very warmly appreciated.
