A pesar de ser una versión simplificada de la novela, quedé totalmente enamorado de la historia. No voy a hacer una reseña porque no estaría juzgando el libro entero, pero debo decir que me gustó muchísimo y voy a hacer todo lo posible para conseguir la versión completa. Muy recomendado para los que están aprendiendo a leer en inglés, tiene un vocabulario muy sencillo.
