I loved the extras you get with this book. I also think that I got a lot more from it because I had seen the movie. You miss out a lot on the amazing visuals and music when you're just reading, but I was able to sing in my head :)

I mean granted it's not written for me but I loved the movie and wanted to check out the book. The past scenes were super interesting as I am one always greedy for context and back story but the present ones not so much. But again, well out of my age range.

This novelization of Pixar's Coco is meant for a middle grade reading level, so it goes a little more in depth into the backstory than the movie does, and is well worth picking up for that reason alone! (I still cried at the end.)

This was a pleasant surprise of a book that adds on more detail and backstory to the characters from the movie!
