New young reading titles, based on the timless classic by Charles Dickens.
The dramatic story of a young boy's escape from an unhappy childhood into the adventures of an adult life, full of unforgettable characters from the cruel Mr Mudstone, the formidable Aunt Betsey and worm-like Uriah Heap. The classic Charles Dickens novel retold for children ready to tackle longer and more complex stories. Part of the Usborne Reading Programme developed with reading experts at the University of Roehampton.
Mary Sebag-Montefiores retellings of David Copperfield and Oliver Twist...are perhaps the best well-written and dramatic. * The Telegraph *
