This wonderful series is a quick way into a range of exciting stories, from the chilling tale of Frankenstein, to the gripping adventure of Treasure Island and the powerful animal story of Call of the Wild.

Fast-moving and accessible, each story is a shortened, dramatically illustrated version of the classic novel, which loses none of the strength and flavour of the original. "Kidnapped" was written by Robert Louis Stevenson in 1886.

It is set in Scotland in 1751 and is the story of David Balfour, a newly orphaned young boy who is cheated out of his inheritance by his uncle and kidnapped.

Then, amid the conflict between the Jacobites and the supporters of King George II, David is falsely accused of murder and must flee for his life!
