An audio cd of S&S read by Cherry Gilchrist
w/ Level 3 paperback adaptation of JA's original edited by Andy Hopkins & Jocelyn Potter.
Illustrated w/ sketches throughout and including activities, discussion questions and word list for level 3 readers considered pre-intermediate.

A good introduction to younger readers/listeners gives the story in understandable language and clearly enunciated dialogue on the audio.

A bit too many changes eg - finding Marianne crying when Mrs Dashwood and daughters return from a 'visit' when in fact it had been preplanned by Willoughby who had come to call on Marianne for an important meeting whilst they would be attending church, etc

Not the accuracy and story I anticipated for my purpose of participation in Austen in August 2012. Yet perfectly suited for it's intended audience I'm sure. ( )
