Graffex is a series of illustrated literary classics retold for young readers, using a graphic novel format which is particularly popular with reluctant readers. Join the unforgettable Huckleberry Finn as he journeys down the Mississippi in search of whatever adventures life has in store for him, surviving shipwreck and intrigue on the way. This engaging story is presented as an exciting and fast-paced graphic novel which remains faithful to Mark Twain's original text. Specially commissioned full-colour artwork brings excitement and atmosphere to this classic 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.
