Book Synopsis

An illustrated adaptation of Charles Dickens's Victorian classic – at an easy-to-read level for readers of all ages!

In Coketown, there’s no place forimagination. There are facts and figures and absolutely nothing else – or so Thomas Gradgrind thinks.

When the circus appears in town, it brings Sissy Jupe with it. A young girl who has been abandoned by her father and is taken in by Thomas Gradgrind. Full of fun and energy, will Sissy save the Gradgrind children from a life of fact-and-figure-filled misery before its too late?

About The Charles Dickens Children's Collection:
Bah humbug! Who says the classics are just for adults? Join Ebenezer Scrooge on his ghostly Christmas adventure, or follow orphaned Oliver Twist from rags to riches in some of literature's most famous tales from the foggy streets of Victorian London.
