I enjoyed the book, but it is written for the middle school set and reflects that. Everyone I've talked to that has seen the movie has enjoyed it. Just from the previews I can tell they changed a bit of it.librarypatnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3217012316587200736.post-39406248740580453772010-02-24T07:48:57.562-05:002010-02-24T07:48:57.562-05:00Pat--Yes, Percy was definitely a Quest.

That certainly falls into the category of Quest.<br />Prior to that, it was WARRIOR'S BRIDE by Gerri Russell which I would classify as a Cinderella type of story.librarypatnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3217012316587200736.post-33710250352473106882010-02-23T20:52:29.789-05:002010-02-23T20:52:29.789-05:00How cool!

When is it due again? :)<br />I really like your new-and-improved version of Pygmalion, I think; while the original story is nice (and sexy) in a way, it's also very, very one-sided and sexist; the statue come to life is never really more than a cardboard figure, and Pygmalion must be an idiot if he's satisfied with that. Grace and Crispin will do much better! :)Nynkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08810044360681034104noreply@blogger.com
