Sophie (notemily) | 469 comments I noticed that this adaptation of Moby Dick was combined with the original Melville novel, so I separated them and moved McCaughrean to the primary author position. But I'm not sure if I should combine it with this version, which is retold by the same author but with a different illustrator. My hesitation is mostly from the fact that one of them is part of the "Oxford Classic Tales" series and one is part of "Oxford Illustrated Classics." I don't know if that matters, though.

Sandra | 31478 comments Whether it is illustrated or simply text it is the story that matters. Are the 2 books basically the same story?

If so, they get combined.
