Nuestro club de lectura para alumnos de inglés con nivel pre-intermedio está leyendo ZORRO.
Escuchamos el audiolibro, leemos en voz alta las páginas compartidas y luego practicamos nuestra "speaking skill" comentando sobre la trama y los personajes. Quieres intentarlo? Te va a encantar! Practicamos el inglés que ya sabemos, lo reforzamos y lo afianzamos a través de lecturas deliciosas.
Johnston McCulley
Born in Illinois, McCulley graduated from Chillicothe Township High School in 1901.He started as a police reporter for The Police Gazette and served as an Army public affairs officer during World War I. An amateur history buff, he went on to a career in pulp magazines and screenplays, often using a Southern California backdrop for his stories.
Many of his novels and stories were written under the pseudonyms Harrington Strong, Raley Brien, George Drayne, Monica Morton, Rowena Raley, Frederic Phelps, Walter Pierson, and John Mack Stone, among others.
Aside from Zorro, McCulley created many other pulp characters, including Black Star, The Spider, The Mongoose, and Thubway Tham. Many of McCulley's characters—The Green Ghost, The Thunderbolt, and The Crimson Clown—were inspirations for the masked heroes that have appeared in popular culture from McCulley's time to the present day.
