Customer Reviews

Thank goodness for Manga Classics!

Thanks for manga editions of these classical literature! This edition definitely alliviated how difficult reading the classics can be. What I loved about this is the author's and illustrator's notes at the back because they shared their processes and their thoughtful interpretation of the book. As for the story... it was alright. This was a good look of how life was like at that time. And Oh man! The freedom and carefree-ness of children was amazing to see. And it also depicts how adults can be interesting.
