I really didn't like this adaptation of Thumbelina. It was hard to follow because instead of telling you who is speaking, you would come upon chunks of dialogue split up with dashes. Each dash was a new speaker but in many cases I had no idea who was speaking. Also, plot items didn't make sense. For example, the author says Thumbelina didn't know how to say "yes" or "no" but she could say whole sentences describing cards games she didn't know how to play. Weird.

Abandoned half-way through.
