3.0 out of 5 stars A must-have for any Newsies fan, of any age., Oct 12 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Newsies: A Novel (Junior Novel Series) (Paperback)
I would recommend this only to the biggest Newsies fans, which happen to be any Internet Newsies fan I think...it's more like the original script than the finished product(Spot was originally written as a freckle faced, toad-y little guy). Of course, it *is* a junior novelization, so it's very childish and should take the average Newsies fan less than a day to skim through and read. I'm 19, and I do kind of enjoy reading through it every once and awhile. It has all the major plot points and scenes in it, and a few extras. One interesting thing is that the cover they chose is a blooper photo. Kid Blink's eye-patch in the photo is just above his eye, and both of his eyes are visible. Heck, it's worth it just to see that! Bottom line, any self-respecting Newsies fanatic should have a copy of this little gem *somewhere* in their home.

2.0 out of 5 stars If you're looking for....., Jun 15 2000
By "newspaperannie" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Newsies: A Novel (Junior Novel Series) (Paperback)
.... a book exactly like the movie, this isn't it. (But then, most movies turned into books, or books turned into movies aren't exactly alike, either.) Events are slightly changed, and certain characters are developed more than they are in the movie.

.... the history behind the newsboys strike of 1899, which is what the book and movie are about, look somewhere else. While they have done a little bit of research into the strike, the information presented in the notes at the back isn't accurate. I'd suggest doing a internet search for City Hall Park (a web site about the history of the strike) or go to newsies-movie.com for more historical information.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as the movie, Nov 27 2000
By "aleah" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Newsies: A Novel (Junior Novel Series) (Paperback)
If your a totally Newsies fan then i would reccomened the book because it definitly is a good book but if you are looking for something that is like the movie then this is not it. Some of the characters are more developed in the book then in the movie and they leave out certain things. But if you are just looking for a good read i would definetly suggest this book.
