Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Titles in Barron's Graphic Classics series present faithful graphic novel adaptations of memorable works of literature. Graphic Classics introduce elementary and secondary school students to many great books, and encourage boys and girls to discover the joy of reading the masterworks in their original form. Graphic Classics titles tell absorbing stories with high-quality color illustrations, brief narrative sections, and dialogue balloons that capture the spirit of the originals. Each title includes background material to help young readers understand when and why the literary work was originally written. David Copperfield, a classic novel by Charles Dickens, tells of a little boy's struggles against a wicked stepfather and other hardships as he grows to manhood. The story is also enlivened with many colorfully comic characters. Probably the funniest of them is the always-in-debt but ever hopeful Mister Micawber. Dickens claimed that David Copperfield was his favorite among his many fictional characters. This edition is hardcover. The book is also available in a paperback edition.

Contraportada:

(back cover )
Sent to work in a dismal factory, David Copperfield's only hope is to run away -- to a crotchety old aunt he has never met. On his journey from boyhood to manhood, he meets some of the most memorable fictional characters ever created: the penniless Micawbers, the trusty Peggotty, the shifty Uriah Heep, and others. Will David finally succeed in life, and find true love as well?
Charles Dickens's favorite novel is vividly and faithfully retold in graphic novel format.
