BOOK CLUBS: sir Francis Drake

Did you know that our hometown has got a corsair in its history? Yes, a real pirate! Today, the members of BookLand and Bookworms have helped Maria Pita in her defense of A Coruña. We have traveled back in time to the year 1589, when sir Francis Drake unsuccessfully attacked our coast. That´s why the 5th place we have visited is the port and the breakwater, in order to spot the visitors from the sea and also to admire the magnificence of the waves dancing with the wind. Poetic, isn´t it? As our readings, two stories of revenge, adventure, love and loyalty: "5 children and it" by Edith Nesbitt and "The tempest" by the great William Shakespeare.  We even also have had the chance to take our booty: gold coins and shells!

Now please take a look at our project to learn more about pirates, sir Francis Drake and these two fascinating stories. Remember to visit Lilí, our favourite librarian. She has also a treasure for you all: the two videos she has just prepared for us: "5 children and it" - "The tempest". Thank you, Lilí, for all your hard job!!!!
