Manga Classics: Pride & Prejudice

Manga Classics: Pride & PrejudiceFrom Goodreads:    "This adaptation retains all of the charm and fun of the characters and situations, and is a great way to expose those without the time or inclination to pick up the novel."

"Good Comics For Kids (School Library Journal)." 

Beloved by millions the world over, Pride & Prejudice is delightfully transformed in this bold new manga adaptation. All of the joy, heartache, and romance of Jane Austen's original, perfectly illuminated by the sumptuous art of manga-ka Po Tse, and faithfully adapted by Stacy E. King.



My Thoughts:

-    I was SO excited when I found this!

-    The illustrations were beautiful and amazing! I wish they had been in color. I loved the character designs. Everyone was perfect! They way Mr. Collins is depicted cracked me up! Elizabeth and Jane were gorgeous! The clothes and hair were amazing! These were some of the best illustrations I've seen in Manga! I loved it!

-    This is my new favorite adaptation of Pride and Prejudice! I'm really excited to read the other books in this series!

-    I loved this book! I just can't contain how awesome this is!! Austen Manga!!!!! GENIUS!
