Hello,

I read Mr. Ona Low's first certificate english textbook when I was
college student, and have got fascinated with the excerpted stories on
it ever since.

Would anyone kindly tell me where I can find the full stories on that
text book?

Thanks in advance.

Ting

Do a web search for the individual authors
and titles.

Excerpts in a text book come from all
over the place: Novels, short stories,
newspapers, magazines, etc.

You need to get a copy of the book.

Did you spell 'Ona Low' correctly? I did a web
search and got no hits.

thank you for the reply.

It might be an old book.

By the way, do you know any other groups concerning English language
education?

Interesting that Amazon gives results for Ona Low but not Google.

Check your local libraries' catalogs on the internet.

Near where I live, the Toronto and Hamilton libraries have copies of
some of his books.

Unfortunately they don't have copies of the book you're interested in.

You could also buy the book from Amazon.
