(4) 4-6 Classics Illustrated series. Adapted by Mike Vosburg. Condensed graphic-novel versions of Stevenson's novel and two of Dickens's works (including the less well-known Mugby Junction) give reluctant readers an entryway into classic literature. The retellings are only adequate, but the illustrations and pacing of the graphic novels serve the material well. While not a substitute for the originals, these books retain some of the tone and flavor. Review covers these Classic Illustrated titles: Scrooge and Kidnapped.
