"Retold by"  
Even though the title of the book says "Huckleberry Finn" and the author is listed as Mark Twain on the cover, this is a rewrite by an author lacking the wry wit and humor of Mark Twain. Why the Dalmatian press decided to take a book that is so wonderful and have it rewritten in such a dry and unexciting way is a travesty. Could someone have actually thought that Mark Twain didn't do a good enough job? I bought 4 of these Dalmation Press Classics books thinking that my children would love them. All four are rewritten in the same dry, unexciting and uninteresting way. I'm disgusted, disappointed, and feel cheated.
