Description
An illustrated adaptation of Charles Dickens's Victorian classic - at an easy-to-read level for readers of all ages!
Filled with rusting relics and tattered treasure maps, The Old Curiosity Shop is Nell Trent's favourite place in the whole world. This is lucky because it's also her home.
Nell and her grandfather have always been happy with their simple lives. But when money gets tight, the pair are thrown out of their beloved shop and into the unknown. Poor and hungry, with no one to turn to, how will they cope now?
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.
