The Cozy Classics series stages handcrafted felt puppets in scenes from classic literature and illustrates the plots of canonical texts using twelve total words per book, one word per scene, in a way that accurately and humorously summarises each books plot. Its Great Books for toddlers and their parentsa little bit serious, a little bit ironic, and entirely funny and clever. This title takes on Charles Dickens' Victorian masterpiece: Great Expectations.
