Great Lives in Graphics: Jane Austen is a graphic retelling of Jane's story which gives children a colorful snapshot of her life and the world she grew up in, while educating them on everything from Regency culture to the wonders of storytelling.


You may already know that Jane Austen was a writer, but did you know she was one of eight children? Or that she brewed her own?


Great Lives in Graphics reimagines the lives of extraordinary people in vivid technicolor, presenting 250+ fascinating facts in a new and exciting way. It takes the essential dates and achievements of each person's life, mixes them with lesser-known facts and trivia, and uses infographics to show them in a fresh visual way that is genuinely engaging for children and young adults. The result is a colorful, fascinating and often surprising representation of that person's life, work and legacy. Using timelines, maps, repeated motifs and many more beautiful and informative illustrations, readers learn not just about the main subject of the book but also about the cultural background of the time they lived in.
