Perhaps confusingly, there were *two* adaptations of the 1996 film, Napoleon: (1) a novelisation in portrait paperback format (with 96 pages of text + 8 pages of full-colour stills from the film; cover photo features the Sydney Opera House); and (2) a storybook adaptation in landscape format (with 48 pages of colour stills from the film with accompanying text; cover photo features the Sydney Harbour Bridge as well as the Opera House). Also confusingly, the text of each version, while different, was written by Nette Hilton. Goodreads does have entries for both, but each has significant problems which should be fixed in accordance with Goodreads standards:
1. The cover on the Goodreads entry is actually a squeezed-up version of the storybook's cover: it features the Bridge instead of just the Opera House. The novelisation's correct cover is here (photos taken by me of the ex-library copy I own: https://imgur.com/a/DXIlr4K)
2. The page count is incorrect: the novelisation has 96 pages of text + 8 pages of photos (not 80 pages)

The storybook
* ISBN: 0733603572
* Goodreads entry: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Issues/problems:
1. The title is simply Napoleon (not Napoleon - picturebook). If a descriptor is needed in the title, it can best be described as a storybook.
2. The author is Nette Hilton (not 'unknown').
3. A cover can be added - photos taken by me of the ex-library copy I own: https://imgur.com/a/RamXVdI
