Worst. Book. Ever! It has been well over two years and I still struggle reading this book!

Still holds up pretty well; I think I may have read an abridged version when I was a child. The audiobook version through Audible Plus was great because of all the singing of verses just like a minstrel. The many movie and television adaptations keep the general gist of the book, but most do take liberties with the book. There is a bit of repetitiveness to the stories, but for kids, that might be okay.

The beginning was very repetitive but in the end it picked up.

I really enjoyed this book. It was a little hard to get into because of the Old English language, but after 20 pages or so I got into the groove of things and was able to read it much easier. It was a fun book. I was surprised that Maid Marian was really only mentioned in passing. I thought she would be a bigger character in the book. Makes me wonder where she came from, or if some movie producer just decided to embellish the character to add a love story to one of the movies.

Not unlike Disney’s Robin Hood movie, without the foxes. If Wikipedia is to be believed, this children’s book set the tone for future Robin Hood stories and was one of the first to portray him as an outlaw philanthropist. Who was the real Robin Hood? Who knows, but this was a fun listen.
Book published in 1883.
