As ever in the series, all artwork has been expertly refreshed and looks simply wonderful.
A collection of the world’s finest classic literary stories expertly retold in a lively and accessible way and brought to life with bright, bold and wonderfully witty illustrations. Children and adults alike will be charmed by these “miniature masterpieces”.
This range of books are bound in vibrantly coloured hardback covers. Inside you’ll find 64 pages featuring an introduction to the “cast” of characters, an enchanting but authentic retelling of a classic tale, including verbatim best-known quotes, interspersed with delightful colour illustrations. After you’ve finished the story, you will find questions and notes for consideration and exploration at the end.
These entertaining and habit-forming books are ideal for a wide age range and are superb library-building volumes, beautifully produced to make a perfect gift.
We are thrilled to introduce our Vintage Replica Hardback series.
Using the classic vintage cover treatments, these beautiful books bear the same fully refreshed and revitalised artwork as our replica paperback line but are handsomely bound in sturdy hardback covers with a vivid yellow spine that makes this collection look fantastic on the shelf.
There are 52 full-colour pages within, including Classics Illustrated’s splendid comic-strip retellings of the great works of literature, followed by author biographies, theme discussions and study guides.
We have eight exciting titles to offer you so far, starting with H.G. Wells’ The War of the Worlds.
