A popular spin-off from the Poetry for Young People series introduces children to America�s master of the spooky story: Edgar Allan Poe. Unabridged and fully illustrated, it�s the perfect collection to establish a life-long love of literature. Edgar Allan Poe�s brooding tales of murder, madness, and revenge still grab today�s readers. Here are five of his finest, presented and fully annotated by Andrew Delbanco, a much-honored professor of humanities at Columbia University whom Time magazine called �America's Best Social Critic.� And throughout, chilling and evocative illustrations by renowned artist Gerard Dubois enhance the stories�among them a devilish, skull-like face to accompany �Masque of the Red Death� and an appropriately foreboding view of the House of Usher. The collection includes �The Tell-Tale Heart,� �The Cask of Amontillado,� and �The Oval Portrait��and as always features an author biography, introductions to every story, and definitions of unfamiliar vocabulary.
