Mysterious dark and full of excitement Oliver Twist takes readers on a compelling journey through the crime-haunted alleys of Victorian London. Its heart-rending story of an innocent boy's struggle for survival is peopled by an unforgettable cast of characters - villainous Fagin brutal Bill Sikes and the irrepressible Artful Dodger. Often filmed and adapted into a hugely successful musical Oliver Twist remains as popular as ever. This vivid retelling for children is remarkably faithful to Charles Dickens' masterpiece while Ian Andrew's illustrations brilliantly evoke the atmosphere of 1830s London. Photographs and historical facts place the story firmly in context allowing readers to fully enter into the fascinating world of Oliver Twist.
