Lo leí en formato novela gráfica, osea bastante resumido.
Pues va de un hombre algo extraño que llega alojarse en una posada, es raro porque tiene toda la cara llena de vendajes y eso no les gusta a muchos de los otros inquilinos. Llega el momento en que el hombre se quita los vendajes y todos se dan cuento que es invisible. La gente lo rechaza y le tienen miedo

I didn't realize this was a kid's book when I borrowed the ebook from the library - oops! Still read it.

I didn’t realize this was a kids version and it’s very abridged. I wanted more from the story.

Nunca he leído la novela, pero me gustó conocer la historia en esta versión. Además la leí en la biblioteca, points for that💕

Interesting take on the tale. Glad I had read the original, but it might be enough to entice a kid into reading the real tale later in life.

Man of extreme hubris experiments until he makes himself invisible. Begins to go mad or is already part way there. Thinks he can do no wrong, and he kills because nothing should stop him from his experiments.

A really good adaptation of one of H.G. Wells finest books.

Fun for kids but so abridged that it didn't make complete sense.
