2- A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens
The famous wordsmith is known for many classic works, but this story, published in 1859, has sold the most of all with 200 million copies. However, this was and perhaps still is a staple read of many schools, so maybe that has helped.
3- The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien

007 Interesting Facts About The Man Who Brought Bond to Life
Tumblr media
James Bond was the original action hero, immortalized in the pages of the novels by British author Ian Fleming. However, Bond became an iconic screen figure too, thanks in no small part to the charismatic Scottish actor Sean Connery, who was the first to utter the legendary line ‘Bond, James Bond’ on screen.
  Connery died recently aged 90 and as well as being the quintessential action entertainment hero James Bond, had a long and career. Here are interesting facts about the man how brought Bond to life
Tumblr media
  1. His full name is Thomas Sean Connery and went by the name Tommy in his youth and was even referred to as Big Tam in his native Edinburgh. He later decided to go by his middle name of Sean instead.
  2. Connery was always a tall and imposing figure. At age 18, he was six foot two inches tall.
  3. He came from a working-class background and his first job was as a milkman at the age of 16. His father was a factory worker and his mother a cleaner, so he knows the value of hard work from an early age.
Tumblr media
    4. He joined the British Navy and trained as a gunner for the anti-aircraft crew, however, he had to be later discharged from the Navy on medical grounds.
  5. Connery was an accomplished soccer player and he was offered the chance to play for Manchester United by their legendary manager and fellow Scot Matt Busby. Connery, however, turned it down knowing that the career of a professional athlete was a short one.
  6. He nearly missed out on the role of Bond to legendary English actor Cary Grant. However, Grant could only commit to one movie while the producers had a series of films in mind.
  7. The Bond producers held open auditions, but couldn’t find a suitable candidate before inviting Connery to try out for the role and the rest is history.
