Tarzan of the Apes

Experience the legend of Tarzan in this thrilling adventure from Edgar Rice Burroughs. Set amid the vibrant colors and sounds of the African jungle, this classic work, rich in suspense and action, has beckoned generations of readers on a glorious journey to romance and pure adventure. This is the story of the ape-man Tarzan, raised in the wild by the great ape Kala, and how he learns the secrets of the jungle to survive—how to talk with the animals, swing through the trees, and fight the great predators. As Tarzan grows up, he makes many friends, including Tantor the elephant and Numa the lion. When this paradise is invaded by white men, Tarzan’s life changes, for in this group is Jane, the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. Speaking directly to our childhood fantasies, this exhilarating work takes us to that faraway place in our minds where dreams prevail, and where we too can be masters of our own domain. With an Introduction by Gore Vidal And an Afterword by Michael Meyer

Jerry Todd and the Talking Frog

Edward Edson Lee (1884-1944), who wrote under the pen name of Leo Edwards, was a popular children's literature author in the 1920s and 1930s.He wrote five series of books, including the Jerry Todd series of sixteen books and the Poppy Ott series of eleven books, and both series were wildly popular. All of the series were inter-related in some way; the Todd and Ott stories took place in the town of Tutter, Illinois, a fictional town modeled on the town of Utica, which Lee experienced in his childhood. The supporting characters in the Todd and Ott books -- "Red" Meyers, "Scoop" Ellery, and "Peg" Shaw -- were real boys that Lee befriended around the time he began writing the stories.In his autobiography, Where's the Rest of Me? Ronald Reagan wrote that, growing up in Tampico, Illinois, he had a boyhood much like Jerry Todd."When I was a kid, there was this series of hardcover juvenile adventure books featuring a character named Jerry Todd. They were something like the Hardy Boys but they had a lot of humor mixed in with the adventure"--Stan Lee Rediscover the wonderful classic adventure stories of Jerry Todd in this reprint edition!

When I was a kid, I was a voracious reader. I read a book called "The adventures of Jerry Todd" nobody has ever heard of it except me, it is a series of books like "The Hardy boys" or "Nancy Drew". One thing the author did in the end of the book, he had a couple of pages in the end of the book, where he would talk to a reader and asked how the reader liked it and told how he happened to write it. And all the books (from the series) I read, I felt I knew this writer because of these pages.

Странная история доктора Джекила и мистера Хайда

«Странная история доктора Джекила и мистера Хайда» – классика «литературы ужасов», произведение, популярность которого со временем лишь возрастает. Небольшая повесть о викторианском ученом, поставившем над собой дерзкий и опасный эксперимент и тем самым выпустившем на волю из глубин подсознания свое темное «я» – зловещего негодяя и убийцу мистера Хайда, – по-прежнему будоражит умы и сердца, не оставляя равнодушным ни одного читателя.

Следующий персонаж Ли, Халк, был вдохновлен сочетанием Джекилла и Хайда и Франкенштейна Бориса Карлоффа. Ли и Кирби создали Невероятного Халка в 1962 году. На Ли повлиял Франкенштейн Мэри Шелли, доктор Джекилл и мистер Хайд Роберта Луиса Стивенсона.
