Classic Books Online



Has your teacher just assigned a classic novel for you to read, but your local library's copy is missing? Perhaps, everyone else got to the library before you and checked every copy out. Or maybe you just enjoy reading the classics...

In any case, check out this website - Classic Books Online


There are tons of classic books available for free, right on the website! Here are just some of the authors available: Jane Austen, Frank L. Baum, Emily Bronte, Lewis Carroll, Kate Chopin, Daniel Defoe, Shakespeare, Jonathan Swift, Oscar Wilde, and many more!

Just go to the site, choose an author, choose a book, and then click on "open book". It will bring up a java window with the entire book. You can also change the background and text color to make it easier to read. And, after closing the book, you can have it email you a bookmark link so you can start back up right where you left off!

This site is definitely worth checking out!
