Recensione:

Merlin was selected as the winner in the Extensive Reading Foundation's 2015 Language Learner Literature Awards in the Adolescents and Adults: Beginners category. Judges and voters said:

• "it would be a good beginner book for a student moving up to this level for the first time...not so overwhelming"
• "the whole story is written in present simple, making it simpler to follow for new beginner level students"
• "the drawings are eye-catching, which are quite helpful in understanding the story."
• it "combines advice for dealing with bullies with the attraction of magic"

ELT Gazette (January 2016) Review by Pete Sharma

• The book incorporates some tricky words, like kingdom, enchantress, portion and cauldron, and manages to remain accessible for the target readers by providing simplified definitions.
• I especially like the imaginative, stylish illustrations, and the language exercises at the back are useful.
