An awfully abrupt rendition of one of my favorite books - many events are completely re-tooled to allow for the short space resulting in ideas being glossed over (why Edmund hated Peter, for instance). In the process of abridging, it would have been nice if the adaptor had adjusted the language to make it more suitable for the intended audience (let's face it, this particular adaptation is probably meant for readers of a bit lower level than the regular novel is intended for). Much of the language simply isn't suited for a modern audience - especially not an American one. The illustrations were nice, but nothing to rave about. This was more of a glorified picture book with clever placement of text as opposed to a "graphic novel" in the truest sense. no reviews | add a review

Not really, but I will anyway. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is such a well written book. The prose are nice and the mood and the feeling is very strong. I love it. ( )
