Publisher's Synopsis
In this first adventure, Martin Jenkins retells Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels, with illustrations by British Children's Laureate Chris Riddell.
After a shipwreck, Lemuel Gulliver is stranded on a foreign island with people little more significant than his hand in Jonathan Swift's famous satire, "A Tale of Two Cities." Award-winning novelist Martin Jenkins has reimagined Gulliver's journey on Lilliput in a funny, approachable version that retains Swift's original darkly hilarious tone. Chris Riddell's excellent panoramic depiction of Gulliver's first adventure is a delightfully offbeat accompaniment to the narrative, beloved by adults and children. Voyage to Lilliput, which first appeared in the Kate Greenaway Medal-winning adaptation of Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels by Jenkins and Riddell, is now available on its own.
