(4) YA Classic Graphic Novel Collection series. Adapted by Brigit Viney. These graphic novel retellings of classic tales present dialogue in modern-day English; there's some awkwardness in the conversions. The books are accessible, though, and could serve as introductions to the original texts. Jane Eyre is illustrated in staid period style, and the other volumes' pictures may appeal to readers accustomed to glossy motion-picture animation. Glos. Review covers these Classic Graphic Novel Collection titles: Jane Eyre, Great Expectations, Henry V, Macbeth, and Frankenstein.
