About Great Stories Of Suspense And Adventure

Product Description This concise Townsend Library anthology features classic short stories which have been carefully edited to be more accessible to today's students. Each story includes an enticing preview and a lively afterword. Acclaimed by educators nationwide, the Townsend Library is helping millions of young adults discover the pleasure and power of reading. Review In this book, six spine-tingling experiences await you: 1) In Rikki-Tikki-Tavi, you'll visit a sun-baked garden in India, where silent death lurks in the tall grass; 2) in The Monkey's Paw, you'll be given a gift of three wishes you'll wish you hadn't received; 3) in Leiningen Versus the Ants, on a lush plantation in Brazil, you'll battle an army of tiny soldiers who turn a man into a skeleton in the blink of an eye; 4) in The Lady, or the Tiger?, your fate will hang in the hands of a friend who just might wish you dead; 5) in To Build a Fire, deep in the frozen Yukon north, you'll confront a danger that's beyond human understanding, and 6) in The Most Dangerous Game, on a tropical island, you'll meet a charming fellow who loves to hunt - and who has you in mind as his target. -- From the Publisher
