Do you hear the bark? Sherlock Holmes: The Hound of the Baskervilles by Arthur Conan Doyle; adapted by Stephanie Baudet

Pub Date 10 Jun 2021  

Sweet Cherry has published a number of illustrated classics that are adapted for the younger reader. The latest of these titles is The Hounds of the Baskervilles. As is true of the other books that I have read in the series, this one captures the essence and feel of the longer work. It also includes information on words, for example, hansom cab, that may be unfamiliar to today’s readers. Hopefully, this version of the story will inspire children to read the original when they are ready.

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher. All opinions are my own.
