So I should premise this with, I adore the book, and I also happen to love the 1993 movie adaptation. But I happen to love graphic novels in general. Which brings me to my strange point, I didn’t love this.
The art was quite lovely. It reminds me of in the style, and I really loved that. But this being a very abridged version, I feel like some of the magic just didn’t translate.
This is just my opinion because I’m sure so many people are going to love this a lot. I am just so in love with the original book and the movie that I needed more content. It just wasn’t long enough for my taste. That’s why I’ve rated this 3 1/2 stars rounded down. I do recommend this to those who haven’t read the book, and also a young audience. I think my kiddos would love this!!!
Thanks so much to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for allowing me to read this for my honest and unbiased opinion.
