Gulliver's Travels: The Graphic Novel (Campfire Graphic Novels) Review: A long strange journey... - Jonathan Swift's "Gulliver's Travels" gets the graphic novel treatment, courtesy of Campfire Classics and adapter Lewis Helfand and illustrator Vinod Kumar. Swift's satire remains an entertaining story and a biting commentary on humankind. As the story opens, the adventurous Lemuel Gulliver goes to sea, to see the world. What he gets is a ship wreck that leaves him stranded in Lilliput, where, to his surprise, the inhabitants are the size of tin soldiers. Gulliver will eventually escape, only to end up in a land of giants, where he is the one who is the size of a tin soldier. Gulliver's travels will continue; he will visit a land of immortals and a land run by horses before finally returning home for good, a much wiser if less content man. "Gulliver's Travels" holds up very well as a reading experience. The story can be appreciated on one level for the hero's fantastic adventures, and on another level as a knowing satire of human society as Swift knew it. Highly recommended to readers of all ages.

liked the illustration and gifted it to my 7 years old nephew. Only in the last 1 or 2 pages I felt the content is meant for little grown up kids , the pictures could have been presented a little more decently
