Labyrinth by Louise Gikow

hauntedjen's review against another edition

5.0

I remember getting this book in 1986 and reading it over and over. I pored over every illustration with awe. In third grade I even recreated the illustration of the "strange creatures who were able to take off their heads and toss them into the air", much to my teacher's dismay.

Now, 25 years after its release, this storybook retains all of its original charm, beauty and wonder. Bruce McNally's illustrations are fantastically detailed, the story worthy to be passed on to new generations and need I mention David Bowey...?

The illustrations are beautiful but the text itself is poorly adapted from the original screenplay.
