Description - Dracula by Bram Stoker
Graffex" is a new series of illustrated literary classics retold for young readers.

Speech bubbles work with the main text to emphasise and enhance the retelling. A full-colour map allows readers to retrace the routes taken by Jonathan and the Count. An appendix describes the vampire legends of eastern Europe which inspired Stoker, and the real life Romanian prince on whom Dracula's character was partly based. There is a detailed timeline of important discoveries and inventions during Bram Stoker's lifetime, and of other novels and stories which helped to inspire him.There is background information on Bram Stoker's life and work, and a list of film and TV adaptations of "Dracula".
