This is one of a series of classic stories retold in very easy English. The whole series comprises one level only, and uses a 500-word vocabulary as formulated for stage 1 of the "Longman Classics" series and stage 1 structures as specified in the "Longman Structural Readers Handbook". There are four pages of exercise material at the end of the text. The "Longman Picture Classics" are designed to be easier and of a lower level than stage 1 "Longman Classics". They are shorter, with less text in larger typeface and with illustrations on every double-page spread. "Jane Eyre" is the story of Jane, a penniless orphan who becomes a governess at Thornfield Hall, where she and the owner, Mr Rochester, fall in love. On the wedding day, Jane discovers that Mr Rochester is already married to a mad woman. The story goes on to tell how they are later united and married.
