Pride and Prejudice for Teens

Using Jane Austen's original manuscript as a starting point, Gerry Baird has masterfully modernized the text and punctuation to make this timeless romance more accessible, while still preserving the beauty and intent of the original. This simplified version of a classic story will transport you to the world of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy. After initially shunning her, Mr. Darcy begins to take notice of her fine eyes and remarkable wit. Elizabeth, who has few family connections and very little wealth to recommend her, believes Mr. Darcy to be a proud and disagreeable man and therefore takes little notice of him until he shocks her-and himself-with a proposal of marriage. Experience this beloved story of regret, misunderstanding and unlikely love in a whole new way in Pride and Prejudice for Teens.
