[Lisa Burris · Rating 4 out of 5]

A faithful, condensed retelling of the familiar stage show version of "Annie," this chapter book is nonetheless well written. The general arc of the story will be familiar to fans of the musical and the resulting film versions, even including nods to the Broadway show's famous songs, like "Tomorrow." The book is packaged as a Christmas book, but, after all, Annie does go to live with Daddy Warbucks over the holidays and the big finale, when the "hard knock" kids are invited to the Warbucks mansion, takes place on Christmas Day.

While general readers may enjoy the book, it is best suited for fans of the musical, "Annie."
