Drahý nosáčku Pinocchio, čteme tvůj napínavý příběh a bez dechu sledujeme, jak se protloukáš nebezpečným světem. Tvůj tatínek Geppetto tě vyřeže ze zázračného špalíku a ty od něj vzápětí utečeš, touláš se světem a vůbec ti nevadí, že všichni mají o tebe strach. Oklameš i svoji maminku, krásnou Vílu s tmavomodrými vlasy! Probodnou tě, pověsí na strom, málem shoříš. Uvážou tě k boudě jako hlídacího psa, jindy zas tě obalí v mouce a málem tě usmaží jako rybu. Musíš se vzepřít loupeživým kunám, které ti nabídly výpalné, abys jim dovolil krást. Proměníš se v osla a zlý člověk tě hodí do moře... Máš dobré srdce, ale není na tebe spolehnutí. Tolikrát jsi slíbil, že se polepšíš, ale ani jednou jsi to nedokázal! To ti nevadí, jaké starosti nám děláš? Jsi pěkný lumpík! Jak to dokážeš, že tě přesto máme všichni rádi? Když se příběh chýlí ke konci a tebe sežere obrovitý žralok, setkáš se v jeho útrobách s Geppettem, kterého žralok schramstl dřív než tebe. A tobě se podaří tatínka zachránit! Ano: někdy je třeba klesnout až na úplné dno, aby se člověk mohl nadechnout a vybojoval si právo na život. Drahý rošťáčku Pinocchio, moc rádi s tebou kamarádíme!

Rather than be 'sivilized' by the Widow Douglas, Huckleberry Finn - the grubby but good-natured son of a local drunk - sets off with Jim, an escaped slave, to find freedom on the Mississippi river. With the law on their tail, they navigate a world of robbers, slave hunters and con men, and Huck must choose between what society says is 'right' and his own burgeoning understanding of Jim's friendship and humanity. Nostalgic and melancholy in equal measure, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain is a razor-sharp satire of the antebellum South that, despite beginning life as a sequel to The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, is now seen in its own right as one of the most important of all American novels.

Early in his childhood, the family moved to Hannibal, Missouri - a town which would provide the inspiration for St Petersburg in Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. When he started writing in earnest in his thirties, he adopted the pseudonym Mark Twain (the cry of a Mississippi boatman taking depth measurements, meaning 'two fathoms'), and a string of highly successful publications followed. His later life, however, was marked by personal tragedy and sadness, as well as financial difficulty. In 1894, several businesses in which he had invested failed, and he was declared bankrupt. Over the next fifteen years he saw the deaths of two of his beloved daughters, and his wife. Increasingly bitter and depressed, Twain died in 1910, aged seventy-four.

Having firmly established the characters of Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson in the novels A Study in Scarlet and The Sign of the Four, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was retained by The Strand Magazine to contribute a series of twelve short stories, which began with ''A Scandal in Bohemia'' in 1891 and were published monthly for the next year. The stories, in which the master sleuth receives a stream of clients presenting him with baffling and bizarre mysteries in his consulting room at 221B Baker Street, were instantly popular and by the time of the publication of the final story, ''The Copper Beeches'', they had become the mainstay of the magazine. They included such classic tales as ''The Five Orange Pips'' and ''The Adventure of the Speckled Band'', and were gathered together in a collection known as The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, representing some of the finest detective stories ever written.
