Title: Abridged
Review: The story was great. I would give it a five star rating. But it was abridged, and the abridger tried to make the book his own. He kept poping in here and there throughout the book to explain why he cut certain parts of the story. But the worst part was that he was also telling his own story at the same time. He claimed that his father read The Princess Bride to him whenever he was sick. Anyone who has watched the movie will immediately see that his story is the same exact one as the boy in the movie's story. Even most of the dialogue is copied from the movie. Another thing the abridger did was tell the story how his father read it to him, which was wrong most of the time, and then explain why his father told it that way, and then he would put the correct version in. It got very confusing. I did not enjoy this book that much. Keep your money and buy an unabridged version.
