4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for younger readers, 24 Sep 2008
By Mrs. R. C. Bearder "Rae" (Channel Islands) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
My son (aged 9) loves this book. It is a very well written version of the classic that enables younger readers to understand how good the story is without having to cope with very complex language. I enjoyed reading it, too.
