Customer Reviews

Building a classic library for a granddaughter

I bought this for my 12-year old granddaughter as part of an effort to build a classics library for her -- the schools don't seem to require that they be read any more --she read it through, so I guess that the effort was worthwhile.

Many Good Stories In One

Mystery, terror, suspense... it's all here. Just look at all the classic stories in this one volume: The Fall of the House of Usher, The Tell-Tell Heart, The Cask of Amontillado, and his masterpiece the Gold Bug. This is required reading for any fan of Poe, or classic writings in general.

This book is thrilling and bone chilling

This is a very good book to read at night or while camping. This is my favorite book because it has lots of stories in it and it keeps you from buying all the books seperately.And if you have a report to do and you need illistrations this has one on everypage.
