This wonderful series is a quick way into a range of exciting stories, from the chilling tale of Frankenstein, to the gripping adventure of Treasure Island and the powerful animal story of Call of the Wild. Fast-moving and accessible, each story is a shortened, dramatically illustrated version of the classic novel, which loses none of the strength and flavour of the original. The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde, published in 1886, was not Robert Louis Stevenson's first novel, but it was one that helped to make him famous in his lifetime. The spine-chilling story shows the struggle between good and evil that Dr Jekyll faced and how, in the end, his own good nature was overpowered by the evil in himself.
