No movie could do credit to this very interesting story. The underdog wins but how he wins is the wonder of it all.

A great story about connections and how our lives are affected by our ancestors, ourselves and who we help and who we let help us. Great children's book and even better than the movie.

Better than the movie. This book held my interest. I thought it wouldn't because its basically a young adult book (I'm no longer a young adult). I enjoyed reading this book.

I loved this book when I was a kid! Then the movie came out and it followed it great I thought. The book itself is amazing. The adventure, back story, and the villains. It's funny and interesting throughout the whole book. So much so that as an adult I have read this young readers book several times and laughed at the same parts and generally enjoyed the book. Enjoy the read....you are going to love it!

I'm not partial to stories of this plot. The book did have some humorous passages, but again, I'm not a fan of it. It all worked out in the end, but it was a depressing story - to me.
