The War of the Worlds Author: H. G. Wells

ISBN: 9781402736889 Format: Hardcover Number Of Pages: 160 Published: 1 February 2007 Country of Publication: US Dimensions (cm): 19.1 x 13.7 x 1.91 Description: Following the blockbuster film, this version of the classic story is ideal for younger readers in an easy to read abridged format.

Hot on the heels of the blockbuster film comes a version of H.G. Wells' chilling tale of alien invasion that every child can enjoy. It begins as the sky lights up with bright cylinders from Mars that look like falling stars - and continues as the Martians emerge from their vessels with machines of fire and deadly smoke.

Wells's depiction of a city in panic - written in 1898 - still remains shockingly contemporary. Classic Starts is in its 5th printing - with more than half a million copies sold! It is aimed at children aged 7 to 9 years old.
