Customer Reviews of Shrek
Good Book! The thing that disappoints me is. The fact that this Shrek is the same as the movie. I found a few goofs in the book regarding one left out word. And, another word that should of been left out. The only thing I would say is. This book is a good version of the movie. I would recommend the other Shrek.
Excellent--- Clearly a Winner!!
After I saw the movie, Shrek, I was dying to recieve the book based on the movie. No, I did not want to read the original version because, well... picture books aren't my thing. The book followed the movie completely-- it only left out a few slight details that you hardly notice, but otherwise, the book is very much like the film. I would recommend this book to anyone who has seen the movie Shrek-- or is just a fan of Shrek! Ellen Weiss clearly knows how to transform a great movie in an excellent book. I give it two thumbs up! Yes, the movie gives the message that it doesn't matter what you look like, but they were making fun of Lord Farquaad--excuse me, the bad guy?! I mean, he injurs innocent gingerbread men! How cruel is that? Unless you're on Farquaad's side, I believe that they were not making fun of petite people-- and that's another thing, that's nice to refer to them as "short people"-- geez, that's really respectful.
Read the Original
If you like the story of Shrek that you saw on the movie screen, I supposed you'd like this version of that story. But, if you want the original Shrek, please read the book by William Steig. You will find a different story, but you'll find the real thing.
One objection to the movie's story - supposedly the message was that it doesn't matter what you look like. But it makes fun of short people.
One other note: all of the young reviewers of this Ellen Weiss version of Shrek need to go back to school and take some spelling lessons.
