The Hound of the Baskervilles by Arthur Conan Doyle, Abridged for Schools by KJ O’Hara
A school-friendly abridgement of one of the most famous detective novels in English literature, ideal for schools, teachers, parents and young readers.
When Sir Charles Baskerville dies in mysterious circumstances on Dartmoor, Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson are drawn into a case involving fear, secrecy and the terrifying legend of a supernatural hound.
Specially prepared for readers in KS2 and KS3 in the UK, and for the equivalent age range in Grades 5 to 8 elsewhere, this edition preserves much of Doyle’s original language, along with the suspense, atmosphere and narrative shape of the novel, while making it more manageable for classroom study and independent reading.
Includes:
a carefully abridged text
a foreword and background section
helpful micro-headings
a glossary
educational activities for school use
