Review:
Fiona McHugh's scriptwriting credits include several episodes of the Road to Avonlea television series.
Fiona McHugh's adaptation of the film and Montgomery's novel is a faithful precis of the original and has many charms of its own.... McHugh effectively novelizes the screenplay with sparkling dialogue, loving depictions of a place and time now lost, and lively characterizations... The Storybook is a highly enjoyable read -- a careful retelling of the original for younger readers that picks up all the humour and heart of the much-loved classic, without oversimplifying or condescending. (Elizabeth Walker CM Magazine, vol. 14, no. 12 2008-02-08)
