The stories have been retold in a lucid style and the language has been modernised for better understanding. Specially designed for schools, these books are graded according to age. The stories have been carefully selected keeping the age group in mind. Pre-reading and post-reading activities add value to the books. One of the classics of English children's literature, and one of the earliest books written specifically for boys, this novel's steady popularity has given it an influence well beyond the upper middle-class world that it describes. It tells a story central to an understanding of Victorian life, but its freshness helps to distinguish it from the narrow schoolboy adventures that it later inspired. The book includes an introduction and notes by Andrew Sanders.
