Large print version,
By T.G. (Pacifica, ca USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Classic American Short Stories (Dover Large Print Classics) (Paperback)
I ordered the large-print version for my 96 year old grandmother. I liked that the stories were short stories, as her attention span comes and goes, and certainly the large print is what she needed to be able to see the words. I think that she will appreciate the old fashioned writing and language of the book as well. I highly recommend this for a senior citizen. It makes a nice gift.

I purchased this book for my grandfather for Christmas. He was thrilled. It is large print (a bonus for him) and the short stories make it a good read for someone that may *nap* while reading and forget where they left off in a longer book.

This review is from: Classic American Short Stories (Dover Large Print Classics) (Paperback)
I like the big print but not the stories inside the book. I was looking more for Joyce James and freshman college lit.
