Title: Great story. Terrible edition.
Review: I love this story. I read it as a child and wanted to share it with my 11 year old daughter. I bought the General Books LLC (October 14, 2010) edition only to find that there are so many typos and errors in the text that it is practically unreadable. This copy was robotically scanned in (99% accuracy, unless a page is missing or two pages are stuck together during the process) and printed using Optical Character Recognition software (again, only 99% accurate, worse if the book used to scan was old or worn). No human ever proofread this book and there are so many errors, it became difficult to even read the text at all and took away much of the fluidity and grace of the story. So by all means, buy this book, it is a classic, timeless story. But please buy a different edition. One proofed by human eyes. This one is an embarrassment to publishing houses everywhere.
