The Story of Cyrano de Bergerac by Stefano Benni
France's best tale of love and panache, retold for children Cyrano de Bergerac is in possession of a cadet-position in the French Army, a poet's soul and a very, very large nose. He is also in love with Roxane, but believes himself too ugly to be loved by her in turn. When the handsome but unpoetic new cadet Christian de Neuvillette himself falls for the beautiful Roxane, he asks Cyrano to help him win her heart ...
Full of humour and wit.. exciting, absorbing and a brilliant way to introduce classic stories to a new younger audience * Junior *
