Description
An illustrated adaptation of Charles Dickens's Victorian classic - at an easy-to-read level for readers of all ages!
In Coketown, there's no place forimagination. There are facts and figures and absolutely nothing else - or so Thomas Gradgrind thinks.
When the circus appears in town, it brings Sissy Jupe with it. A young girl who has been abandoned by her father and is taken in by Thomas Gradgrind. Full of fun and energy, will Sissy save the Gradgrind children from a life of fact-and-figure-filled misery before its too late?
