Christy Series #1: The Bridge To Cutter Gap

Rating:
Summary: Wonderful adaptation of a classic book!
Review: C. Archer shows why she became the best-selling author of the Animorphs series. This is a lucid, intelligent adaptation of Catherine Marshall's masterpiece, "Christy." Archer makes the content easier, but she never compromises the beautiful original book. I have read all twelve volumes of Archer's Christy series and each book is terrific. The true essence of Christy, a story of one young woman's faith, courage and romance is captured beautifully here.

Summary: An OK book, but not very interesting.
Review: I did not totally enjoy The Bridge To Cutter Gap. The book is not that exciting and is not very adventurous either. It is pretty good but not the most interesting book I have ever read.

Summary: A small taste...
Review: This book is an excellent choice to read to little girls, age 5-10 and for girls learning to read. It doesn't use very high level vocabulary, and each book is short. If you really want to enjoy the story premise, you should read the orginial "Christy." These books are enjoyable for a really light read, but nothing more. The craftmanship isn't nearly as high as the original "Christy"...but give at least the first book a try.
