The Canterville Ghost

The Classic Graphic Novel Collection is a revolutionary new series of graphic novels which re-tells classic literature for learners of English. Graded at the intermediate level, the fresh blend of accessible storytelling and captivating artwork ensures that students will want to return to these stories time and again. The Otis family gets more than they bargain for when they move into the Canterville Chase—a haunted English mansion. The ghost of Sir Simon de Canterville has roamed the halls for three hundred years after he murdered his wife there, and now this new family has arrived, much to the annoyance of the resident ghost! Wilde's clever story provides an entertaining twist on the traditional gothic horror story. This charming story is full of humor and wit, and mixes the modern American and traditional British story in an engaging way.
