A classic bed-time story
A nice book though there a little violence in it. Otherwise, a perfect,classic book to read before going to bed at night.

Not appropriate for children
Although I personally love this story, I also think that it is too violent and is therefore innapropriate for children. After reading this story to my child, he had terrible nightmares about getting chopped with a garden tool. I would recommend this to a fearless child. Unfortunatly, there is no such thing. Do not read this to your child.
