It may work well with the movie tie in ?????<br /><br />When finding this Penguin version on Goodreads to add to my books, I did note that a graphics novel of the book will be released sometime in 2011. Not sure of the publisher.<br /><br />That will be fun! Kids (and adults) love graphic novels.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10360453947198770223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-31237221118120628452010-12-19T15:51:12.652-08:002010-12-19T15:51:12.652-08:00I've never read Gulliver's Travels but hav...I've never read Gulliver's Travels but have been thinking of trying to read it with my nine year old son as the story seems like one he might enjoy.

Most of the books from Penguin classics that I really want to read are the really obscure ones.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10360453947198770223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-43370073309396457902010-12-15T13:52:36.307-08:002010-12-15T13:52:36.307-08:00Thanks for sharing about the Penguin contest!

I did start it the other night listening to it, but think I was too tired since I fell asleep. Next try I will make sure that I am not sleepy. <br /><br />That you liked it is promising. But I have a question, was it in English or was it translated into German? That may make all the difference.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10360453947198770223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-75645335981648062152010-12-14T13:42:53.716-08:002010-12-14T13:42:53.716-08:00Hi Shellie,

I definitely want to see it because it seems to be a lot of fun.ediFanoBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11129248787624088717noreply@blogger.com
