The Land of Far Beyond: A re-telling of 'The Pilgrim's Progress' by Enid Blyton

3.0

This rating is based on what I remember thinking of it when I read it as a child. I was nine or ten at the time, and my mother bought it for me when I went into hospital for a routine operation. I read it while I was waiting to go into theatre, and finished it after I got home, while I was off school. I have fond memories of the book. I think at the time, as a young reader, I appreciated the story and the messages it gave. It tied in with my religious upbringing, as I was a regular church-goer. Overall, a good moral tale for youngsters, though I'm not sure I would think the same of it now. I may read it again, as I have a different edition of it now, having lost my old 1992 edition over the years (and am so disappointed that the only copies you can find are astronomical prices).
