Rezension von Toni <strong>Must read for fans of the movie!</strong> A must read for fans of the movie! It has a lot more story then the book. It was told from the view of the boy as an adult remembering his father read him the story. As an adult he is an author and honestly I skipped through some of his parts talking about his adult life. The actual story part is amazing! They give you more story to all the characters in the book and an unexpected ending about Princess buttercup having a baby.
