Abridgments of two famous novels preserve each book's most compelling incidents, but the brevity of each precludes much of the original's richness. Notes and informational sidebars throughout provide story comment and historical context, but clutter the book design and are distracting. The watercolor illustrations for [cf2]Crusoe[cf1] and the oil paintings for [cf2]20,000 Leagues[cf1] nicely suit each story's mood and setting. From HORN BOOK Spring 1999, (c) Copyright 2010.
