Product Description

Thanks to its colorful cast of characters and gritty portrayal of street life in Victorian London, Dickens’ Oliver Twist has captured readers’ hearts for more than 150 years. Today’s children will love it too. Oliver, a poor orphan, escapes the miserable workhouse where he was born only to fall into the clutches of a band of pickpockets led by the odious Fagin. Yet no amount of cruelty can destroy his purity…and through his goodness, he finds salvation.

Hard to put down5
I couldn't get into Dickens in high school, I guess my maturity level just wasn't there. But I bought this classic for my home schooling 6th grade daughter, and vowed to read it no matter what. Well, after the first chapter, I was hooked. And she really loved it too. We read it much faster than I had anticipated, considering the language and size of the book. Highly recommended!

Enjoyable Story4
This is a real page-turner if you like Dickens' style. Memorable characters, such as robber Bill Sykes, his dog Bull's-eye, Mr. Bumble, and Mr. Grimwig. Oliver Twist, the character, is adorable. The only thing that marred the enjoyment of this book for me were the superfluous commas. Haven't checked to see if they erroneously appear in other editions.

Excellent condition!5
