Charles Dickens and Friends

(3) 4-6 Employing a comic-strip format, Williams distills five Dickens classics--Oliver Twist, Great Expectations, A Tale of Two Cities, David Copperfield, and A Christmas Carol--with spirit and verve. Her smooth, lighthearted retellings run beneath wittily drawn picture panels that incorporate dialogue from the original books.
