5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Story Ever, February 17, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Dickens' David Copperfield (Cliffs Notes) (Paperback)

David Copperfiels is a magnificent story, that keeps you at the edge of your seat. In every chapter something new happens and the plot gets even more exciting. A sweet little boy is forced to grow up too quickly and has an immoral role model. This is definaltly the best story I have ever read!

having kids in high school reading great literature, it almost seems a necessity to have the cliff notes to help them interpret the plot and give them analysis of the themes. david copperfield is no exception .. it does a nice job of summarizing the action and giving you a sense of the characters and their role in the story. we found it very helpful ..
