This one had many stories in it that I enjoyed so much that I'm going to try and find the full books to read. Though I don't think I will be successful.

They do a really great job in this series of including stories from different regions and perspectives.

Excerpts from classic children's books. Some better than others. Average 3 stars. But worth reading!

[Zoe · Rating 4 out of 5]

Fun to read a chapter from a bunch of different classics. Though a little confusing to jump into a random chapter from different books! :)
