My boys absolutely loved having their dad read this to them. And for many months afterward there was a lot of teasing going on if a person behaved in a certain way he was referred to as one of the characters (either good or bad) in the book. One of their all time favorites!

This is an excellent book for family reading! Lots of adventures, plenty of manly contests of sword, bow, and cudgel, and some very funny banter, too.

This book is so abrigid it felt like the author was on a time limit, cramming a book twice as long into a small space. I have not read the original so maybe this just failed to improve upon the earlier work.

One of the Great Illustrated Classics books. A nice way to introduce a child to the classics. Pictures are nice---black and white. Larger font than in usual books.
