Children's Classics

This wonderful series is a quick way into a range of exciting stories, from the chilling tale of "Frankenstein", to the gripping adventure of "Treasure Island" and the powerful animal story of "Call of the Wild". Fast-moving and accessible, each story is a shortened, dramatically illustrated version of the classic novel, which loses none of the strength and flavour of the original. It is available for the first time with an accompanying audio CD. "Little Women" was published in 1868 and was the first children's book in America to become a classic. It tells the story of the March girls - Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy, describing the ups and downs of one eventful year in their family life.
