Now your child can enjoy The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells as a Michael Clay Thompson language-illustrated classic.

Challenging vocabulary is defined at the bottom of each page. The War of the Worlds is the book that modern alien invasion stories are founded upon, and this gripping novel has lost none of its ability to excite in the years since it was first published.
