{"product_id":"the-bronts-children-of-the-moors-9781445147321","title":"The Brontës - Children of the Moors","description":"\u003cb\u003eA highly-illustrated retelling of the Bront  sisters life in Haworth in the Yorkshire Dales told from Charlotte Bront 's point of view.\u003c\/b\u003e Produced to coincide with 200th anniversary of the birth of Charlotte Bront , this book introduces the three extraordinary Bront  sisters: Charlotte, Emily and Anne. We also meet their brother Branwell. With a mix of strong story-telling and wonderful illustration, Mick Manning and Brita Granstr m relate the sister's tragically short lives in the remote village of Haworth in the Yorkshire Dales. They explore how the girls were inspired to become writers and the sensation their books caused when people realised they had been written by women.  Each of the sister's greatest novels, Jane Eyre (Charlotte), The Tenant of Wildfell Hall (Anne) and Wuthering Heights (Emily), are simply retold in engaging comic-strip form. The illustrations and text of this book really capture the life of the children of the moors and how the magic and wildness of their surroundings inspired their work. It is perhaps not surprising as Mick Manning was born and brought up in Haworth and, as a child, even played a shepherd boy in a BBC adapation of \u003ci\u003eWuthering Heights.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Franklin Watts\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/04\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781445147321\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.50h x 9.20w x 0.20d","brand":"Mick Manning, Brita Granstr\u0026#246;m","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":37882556088501,"sku":"9781445147321","price":9.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_02f006c0-1408-475f-b4c8-9070c0af0cbe.jpg?v=1607604180","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-bronts-children-of-the-moors-9781445147321","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
