The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (Graphic Revolve: Common Core Editions)

My reading resistant son devoured this graphic novel. Highly recommend!

We are new to Carl Bowen, but we became huge fans by the second page. This is another great graphic novel from a classic piece of literature. Lovers of books and reluctant readers alike will enjoy this brilliant graphic novel of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

Can't wait to read this with my 10th graders! Love that there is a more accessible format for one of my favorite books.

My daughter really enjoys this series, great illustrations!

Very impressed with the purchase!

The cover is smooth and shiny and the pages are nice looks great and is a fun read

This review would have 5 stars if the story stuck closer to the original. I love the discussion questions. I wish there was a teachers' edition with tesy questons.

In this version, Dr. Lanyon is murdered by Hyde however in the original story there's a more complicated story behind Dr. Lanyon's demise and it's MP Carew who is murdered by Hyde. I understand that it might be hard to unravel the true Lanyon story in a graphic novel aimed at a younger audience, but then the discrepancy should be addressed as a footnote at the very least.

Bought this for my 14yr old daughter who had it set as a school textHer views:Explained more what happened in Jeykll and Hyde.Clear picturesGood for preparing for an exam

The story is ok, and the artwork is better than expected, but the book too small and the story too short. I expected a book but received a school booklet (A5) with questions and answers at the back.It's one of those books that if you would have seen it in a bookshop you would not have bought it.It's just what it should have said clearly, a schoolbook. You can read it in 20 minutes and then answer the questions. If you do need it, shop round for a second-hand copy.

I liked the illustrations, and the language is easier to understand, but the author has changed some of the events in the original, so it is not an accurate representation of the book. I hoped it would help my daughter, who is studying the book for GCSE, but I think it is more likely to confuse her.
