| Description | I have been an avid reader of stories in books and comics for almost as long as I can remember. Although I derive great pleasure from finding new authors and encountering their stories for the first time, I also have a core of well-loved books to which I return on a regular basis. Here the pleasure comes not so much from predicting the outcome but from seeing a familiar pattern unfold or from having time to enjoy the way the book is written. In the past, apart from occasional repeat showings, the only way to re-experience stories which I encountered first on television was through book versions of the story. When the television version had been taken from the book, this was usually a satisfying experience; when the book came from the television script, it was usually a disappointment. I think I assumed that this was inevitable; how could a television script have sufficient depth to generate a complex polysemic written text? Had we not acquired a video recorder, I might well have carried on believing this to be the case. Book Name: Children Reading Print and Television |
