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. "Tarzan of the Apes", originally written in 1914, tells the story of a baby - orphaned in the African jungle - who was brought up by apes, not knowing his parents were Lord and Lady Greystoke of England.
