Bookroo's summary

Three classic adventure novels retold as short comics for young and reluctant readers: a dog stolen from his home and forced to survive the Yukon in The Call of the Wild, a young Union soldier facing his fear in battle in The Red Badge of Courage, and a boy caught up with pirates hunting buried gold in Treasure Island. Developed by Bank Street as a first step toward the original books.

From the publisher

These timeless tales presented in a thrilling, graphic novel-style format will get even the most reluctant readers excited about reading. Bank Street, a trusted name among educators, developed the series and is creating teacher’s guides that will explain how to use the books with struggling readers, with ELLs, and with on-level readers as an introduction to literature that will encourage them to go on to read the originals.
