This adaption made the story accessible and easy to follow as an adult and it was clear that complex concepts were covered in simple and clear language. -- Laun R, Podcaster Written in a simple manner, this adaptation of the book would be easy to read on a lexical level, and could be offered to Key Stage 2 children to extend their literary range. It is a great way into encouraging children to read more classic texts but at their level. -- Rebecca Lennon, Teacher I' m very impressed because I never thought of War & Peace being accessible for children- it' s done very well with lovely illustrations without being patronising. -- Rebecca Wright, Teacher I feel like classics can be quite scary, but everyone should have the opportunity to read classic literature like War and Peace without feeling overwhelmed and daunted and I' m so glad this is becoming possible. -- Kira Critchlow, Blogger This book was really good. The illustrations were insanely pretty and it was so easy to understand giving it is a classic. The use of language was so simple. -- Asena A, Book Reviewer
