The Three Musketeers (Bestsellers of Literature) CustomerReview
These remind me of the Classics Illustrated Comics that were popular many decades ago except without all the pictures. I suppose my 5 star rating has nothing to do with these editions, it has everything to do with the stories being retold in this series. We purchased a bunch of them and are enjoying the stories. Make no mistake, this is not classic literature, it is the retelling of the classic stories, paraphrased for young readers.
Please enjoy these for what they are then, an introduction to ageless tales from the brilliant minds of great authors. If your young readers enjoy these stories, encourage them to read the real novels. In that way, the young reader will progress from a mere familiarity with the characters in these abbreviated stories and hopefully come to love the expressive skill of the authors who created them.
