Thi book is every bit as good as the movie. The story just jumps right off the pages and right into your heart. Adults are sure to love it as much as the kiddos do.

Id seen the movie a dozen times and I can say the book is great.

My 5th grade teacher read this to us in class ... and we all loved it! It was the first book to be completley sold out at the Book Fair that year. The movie is good as well ... but nothing beats the book!

Great book, good movie. If you liked the movie, you'll love the book! This book is a classic unlike any other novel of its kind, you'll want to read it again and again!

Although I did not read this book, my 9 year old son did and loved it. Ironically, one rainy Saturday morning, we turned on the TV to find the movie version on and he had just finished the book. I found the movie interesting but of course my son said it wasn't as good as the book. We just received the next book in the series and he can't wait to get started. Judging from the movie, I would say this book has quite a few layers and is appropriate for advanced readers in the 9-12 range.
