Kid's books face a rough path to the big screen I agree. I agree, I agree, I agree. Kid's books are so much better as books.

Children's book adaptations that failed on the big screen. While I think the overall tone of the article is a little on the "complaincomplain" side, I do understand why. Books we've grown up with and love are basically being butchered on the big screen.

10 Kid's Movies That Were Better Than the Book. I'll end this update with some hope. While I've only seen 7 out of 10 of these movies, I do believe the author of the article makes some good points, especially when referring to Hans Christian Anderson's books compared to the movies.
