One of my favorite movies. This is a great adaptation which retains the fairy tale format. I enjoyed the in between tales that further develop the story beyond what the film could do. Of course, wonderful illustrations. This story is very visually driven.

 I wanted to read some fantasy, so I picked up this book. At first, I had a hard time getting into it, for some reason. But the second half of the book got better. 
It did a good job at combining the fantasy elements and the war that was going on around Ofelia. The illustrations were also really beautiful.
Overall, it was a solid read.
