it was ok

bookshelves: book-becomes-movie, young-adult

I am thankful that this book was transferred to film by Rob Reiner. It took the best elements of this story, including the tongue-in-cheek take on the standard fairy tale story. The text, however, with a grating snarky tone and constant author intrusions became more than I could stomach.
