HIT: ELEM: adaptation of Robinsoe Crusoe

[Charlotte Lesser <clesser@MAIL.SAU38.ORG>]

Thanks so much for the following suggestions!
********************************************************
There is an excellent adapation from DK as one of the Eyewitness Classics
series. All of these are adaptations of classics, but are very well done
and contain all kinds of illustrations, sidebars, etc. that add to the
story and are not too long.  (note: this is not yet published - will be Jan
2001)
********************************************************
Our second teachers just received a set of Robinson Crusoe books from
Scholastic Book Clubs.  They are called like Scholastic Junior Classics.
They were able to acquire these free w/bonus points from the Scholastic
monthly book club (SeeSaw, I think).  These are very easy readers for
third/fourth.  You may want to try "Great Illustrated Classics" version
adapted by Malvina Vogel (Baronet Books/Playmore Publishers, 1992)
Playmore Publisher # 212.924.7447. The illustrations are not great. Good
Luck.

I think it's available from Great Illustrated Classics.  The level of my
children would never be able to comprehend the actual classics so I read
these to them.  The same story but shorted and written where they can
understand it easily.  I don't have this title but I think I have seen
it in this series.   There is a picture on every other page (whole page) and
it's very large
type.
