The Scarlet Letter (The Classics: Student & Educator Series)

Teachers have long understood that grasping the themes of great literature while often times challenging is well within the means of those readers willing to thoughtfully engage the text. Furthermore teachers have long understood the value of margin notes as a powerful tool in accomplishing this end. Yet despite the collective wisdom of many educators publishers continue to print the classics in a format little conducive to the kind of text-grappling that experts recommended. In listening to students and educators Gladius Books has heeded the call by publishing a series of the most frequently read classics each printed with extra-wide margins for convenient annotations. To maximize the value of margin notes the publisher has also included an appendix with helpful note-taking suggestions.
