The original Pride and Prejudice, according to Wikipedia, "is a novel of manners by Jane Austen, first published in 1813. The story follows the main character, Elizabeth Bennet, as she deals with issues of manners, upbringing, morality, education, and marriage in the society of the landed gentry of the British Regency."
Is it just us, or is anyone else starting to feel a little sleepy just from reading that sentence? And the actual text of the story isn't any better. Fortunately. in the guinea pig version, we have pictures of guinea pigs in costumes to liven up this musty old story:
Adorable! |
Hey, our human has this book! We weren't impressed, either. We wish all those plants on the cover were real so we could eat them!
ReplyDeleteThe book is impressive as a sleep-aid, though. :-)
DeleteOur Slave bought this book too. She can't stand Jane Austen novels but wanted to own all of these gorgeous guinea pigtures.
ReplyDeleteShe also has the Guinea Pig Nativity by the same publishers.
We'll give them both 5 stars for the pigtures and costumes.
That was pretty much our thought process for giving it 4/5 stars. Great pictures, boring story. We probably would have given it 5/5 stars if it was just a picture book. :-)
