Timeless Classics are designed for the striving reader and adapted to retain the integrity of the original classic. These classics will grab a student’s attention from the first page. Included are eight pages of end-of-book activities to enhance the reading experience.
All four collections adapt classic literature for striving readers; the difference is format. Timeless Classics retells the original novel in full prose, keeping the story's integrity intact. Timeless Shakespeare presents the plays in traditional script format with simplified language. Illustrated Classics tells the story through full-color graphic novel art paired with key phrases and quotations from the original text. Differentiated Timeless Classics takes the same titles from Timeless Classics and Timeless Shakespeare and simplifies the language further for emergent readers, with a larger font and extra white space, while looking identical to the standard edition on the shelf, useful for a classroom where students are reading the same book at different levels. Some titles, including several Shakespeare plays, are available in more than one format, so you can match the book to how a student reads best.
Each Timeless Classics title is a standalone novel, so you can build a custom set around a specific author, era, or reading list, or start with the Timeless Classics Sample Set to preview the full range before committing to a larger order.
