Horn Book (Mon Oct 07 00:00:00 CDT 2024)

These abridged editions retain some of the flavor of the original books while removing dialects and unfamiliar words; many of the details and vibrancy that make these works classics are lost. With these glorified plot summaries, young readers may not seek out the originals (almost within their grasp in the case of Anne and Heidi). The black-and-white illustrations are also bland.
