Book description
Oliver Twist is the classic tale of a poor orphan boy who runs away
from an abusive master, only to fall in with thieves and robbers on the
cruel streets of the 19th C London. Eventually Oliver discovers the
truth about his past, and finds a true home. A series of adaptations of
well-known stories, designed to introduce young readers to the classics.
Divided into short chapters and illustrated with modern black and white
artwork, each title will offer the reader an accessible and exciting
read. Maggie Pearson has worked as a librarian, bar-maid, au pair and
freelance journalist, but mostly as a mother. Her first novel, OWL
LIGHT, was a WH Smith Mind Boggling Book. Now that her three sons are
grown up, Maggie writes full time.
