"It's unfortunate that more people read this story as a child. There is so much more to the story of Rip Van Winkle that a young reader will never pick up on. First, Irving's tale offers a critical comment on the institution of marriage. More importantly, however, the story of Rip Van Winkle shows the insignificance of the political events we see as monumental in comparison to the constancy of nature."
"Everyone should read this story. We have references to this story around us all the time. It makes our life richer if we know the story directly from the author. Great book to read aloud."
