Homer's The Odyssey like you've never seen it - or read it - before! Classics in Graphics: The Odyssey has been adapted into a graphic novel by expert authors, Steve Skidmore and Steve Barlow, with illustrations by Martin Bustamante. Readers join our hero, Odysseus, as his epic journey swirls across the page, dodging sea monsters, one-eyed giants and greedy humans before it's too late ... This series has inclusion at its heart, flinging wide the doors of literature for all to enter and understand. With dyslexia-friendly design for readers aged 10+; inclusive art so anyone can relate to iconic roles; snappy simplified text; introductory material to set the scene; heaps of material at the back, looking at the work's themes, language, publication, a timeline of relevant history, and more! Classics available: Macbeth, The Tempest, Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Much Ado About Nothing, Othello, Twelfth Night, King Lear, The Merchant of Venice, Frankenstein, Dracula, A Christmas Carol, Hound of the Baskervilles, The Odyssey. Praise for Classics in Graphics: ""[...] an excellent job converting challenging language and literary themes to make it very inclusive, smoothing ease of understanding dialogue, plot, and narration without dumbing it down."" - EricWilliamson, leagueofcomicgeeks.com
