Graffex is a series of books created by the Salariya Book Company, published in the UK by Book House and available in numerous languages worldwide. The series takes famous literary classics and retells them in a graphic novel format. Each title is an abrigded version of the original book, and is designed to engage young and reluctant readers through the use of simplified narratives and colourful visual aids.
Most of the titles are illustrated by Penko Gelev, although Nick Spender and Romano Felmang have also contributed to the series.
