When the Disney movie came out I was tempted to re-read this book, but didn't want my adult brain to ruin my childhood memories. The story holds up though (if quite a bit more religious than I recalled - I missed so much Christianity in so many fantasy novels.) The movie was completely different than the book... I say inferior, but that could be the happy childhood memories.
I wholeheartedly recommend this to be read with kids.
