![]() ![]() At times the story, which can be a little confusing, seem to jump a bit, and the beginning with Hawthorne finding the manuscript seemed unnecessary. There were a few aspects of the text that were confusing and the illustrations that were a bit odd and/or creepy to me. I liked the illustrations as well I felt the consistent black and white illustrations except for the stark red/scarlet A on Hester was perfect and so well done. I liked the adaptation and felt it stayed true to the original story including the themes and the feelings of the book. This Manga Classics adaptation of The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne gets 4 out of 5 Stars in my book review. They are perfect for reluctant readers, those that don't like to read, those that struggle reading the classic literature, ESL students in high school that are still learning the language, and anyone wanting to try classic literature in a different format. I love how fast and easy to read these Manga Classics adaptations are. ![]() ![]() The Scarlet Letter is the second Manga Classic book ( Great Expectationswas first), and I enjoyed re-reading this classic book in a much easier format. ![]()
