Description
Age range 10 to 13 For more than a century, Sherlock Holmes's adventures have thrilled readers. This volume collects seven of his most challenging cases, including A Scandal in Bohemia, The Red-Headed League, The Speckled Band, The Five Orange Pips, The Blue Carbuncle, and The Beryl Coronet. It also features the novel The Hound of the Baskervilles. The stories feature art by Sidney Paget, who illustrated the Sherlock Holmes stories that appeared originally in The Strand.
Author Biography
Conan Doyle trained as a doctor, but later divided his time between medicine and writing. His popular Sherlock Holmes stories, narrated by Dr Watson, were so addictive that his fans protested at the detectives 'death' in 1893 and Doyle had to resurrect him.
