Day Boy and the Night Girl Audiobook

" this was a really cute book. it had a nice happy ending. I can't wait to read more by this author. "

" This is without a doubt my favourite short story ever written. "

" Men and women are as different as night and day. Macdonald deftly illustrates just that in this wonderful fairy tale! "

" This is by far my favorite book, well its a short story actually. George MacDonald's languge is poetic and the characters are vivid. Its almost like a beautiful myth. "

" There is really no other word for this book other than beautiful. There are very few writers who can do fairy tales as well as George MacDonald. "

" I'd like to read this one again some day and see if my impression stands up to the test of time. I'm betting it won't. "

" Super short and fable-ish. "

" MacDonald is always allegorical and what could be more allegorical than a boy raised entirely in light and a girl raised entirely in darkness. But I got to admit...I don't get it. Still, it's a charming fairytale. "

" This is a charming story - and an excellent reader! "

" I love the pictures that come with this book. I remember looking at them over and over when I was a kid. It was wonderful to introduce Daphne to them just the other week. She seemed to be just as enthralled with them as I was. "

" I got this book as a child and have since lost it. It's one of my favorite fairy tales. "

" One of MacDonald's darker fairy tales, and one of my favorite. Lovely and interesting. "

" I like this very much but I thought that is ended all quite suddenly. I feel he could have written much more in the ending. "

" I love the imagry. I love the thought of the river being alive and it has to be killed to drink or bathe in. very original "

" Found this and purchased it second hand for my daughter. Fell in love with the story. "

" Read it if: it's given to you for free, you have nothing else to read or occupy your time, or you have to for a college literature course and you are going to have a test. "

" That was incredibly sweet. :) Not surprised at all that Lewis Carroll liked this author. "

" Beautiful allegory of how we fear the new and strange and how we can come to accept it. Though there were some parts that had difficult verses to understand. I do feel I may have enjoyed this better had their been more character and story development, rather than sticking to fairy talesque tellings. "

" It was a cut little fairy tale! "

" The best first line ever written. "

" I chose this book because excerpts were in a recent YA dystopian book I read (The Enclave) and I was curious to read more. "
