A really useful study guide4
As a teacher I have shared this excellent novel with probably thousands of teenagers over the years. I buy all the study guides to check them out for my students. This guide is on the recommended list!

Chapter summaries, character reviews and pointers towards examination questions are all present and thoughtful. This is certainly a useful read for people studying the novel for GCSE.

My only quibble is that perhaps it does not explore themes in sufficient detail for students aiming for the very top grades - but then, to be fair, they probably don't need a guide.

This is certainly very good value for money.

Woah5
I was given this study guide to use when revising for my English Litrature GCSE exam.
I found the tips and the generalisation very very useful and the excercises given to complete were of use, unlike some guides that give difficult offputting questions.
The language within the guide is not too simple and not to complex, which makes it an ideal guide as it does not intimidate or put one off revising.
I like the guide's size aswell, as it was easy to store in a small bag meaning that it was always availible for referance if I had a few minutes spare.
I achieved an A grade using this guide in the 2007 GCSE exam, so I would highly reccommend purchasing this guide for the English Lit exam.

Indispensable for GCSE students5
Accessible and comprehensive GCSE study guide for John Steinbeck's seminal Depression era novel. If you are in Y10 or Y11 and studying this text then I urge you to make buying this an absolute priority. What I would say too is that it's NOT a substitute for reading the novel - read the novel at least once then dip into this. Superb.
