COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Horrible edition submitted by willow on July 9, 2016, 4:54pm This abridged edition cuts out tons of verbiage but still maintains the cavalier "when you hear a rustling, shoot first, then look!" approach of the original. On top of this, this version has an insane number of typos and grammatical errors. Completely irritating as a read-aloud, but it would be exhausting for a new reader.
