Description

This abridged version will have students eager to get to the end of the chapter, just to see where their pirate adventures will take them next. This is not a book you read from cover to cover but your decisions, as you read, will determine what page you go to next. Still maintaining original language in a student friendly way, this is a wonderful way to introduce classic literature and may even encourage students to pick up the real work. I have never seen a book like this before and love the idea. The style turns reading into a game and engages readers in a different and unique way. Don’t let the number of pages dissuade you, your choices will determine how many of those pages you read. About 190 pgs, pb. ~Rebecca
