Graffex is a series of illustrated literary classics retold for young readers, using a graphic novel format which is particularly popular with reluctant readers. 'It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.' Dickens' rip-roaring tale of love, friendship, savagery and betrayal in the French Revolution is one of his masterpieces. The classic story is presented as an exciting and fast-paced graphic novel which remains faithful to Dickens' original text. Specially commissioned full-colour artwork brings excitement and atmosphere to this stirring tale. Speech bubbles work with the main text to emphasise and enhance the retelling. A running glossary at the foot of each page helps young readers with any challenging vocabulary without disrupting their reading experience. Endmatter provides information about the author, the historical background to the period in which the author lived and a timeline of world events that places the work in its historical context.
