Horn Book (Wed Aug 01 00:00:00 CDT 2018)

These graphic-novel abridgements vary from modest but adequate storytelling (in shorter tales like Wilde's) to merely illustrated plot summaries for more complex works (Melville's and Homer's). All the tales are told in short sentences featuring modern English. Stylized illustrations can make characters hard to distinguish when the narration is already so reduced. Each volume includes brief background material, discussion questions, and writing prompts. Glos.

Discover Oscar Wilde's classic tale of double lives and corruption in this graphic retelling for kids. In the halls of London's high society, dark rumors surround a man called Dorian Gray. His ever-youthful appearance paired with a wild, decadent lifestyle arouses curiosity. Some even say his attic hides a dangerous, monstrous secret. A secret hidden in a simple portrait painted a long time ago . . . With extra background on the original novel and its author, plus discussion questions and writing prompts, it's easy to introduce young readers to this literary classic.
