From School Library Journal:
Gr 2-5-This retelling has a feline cast that serves as an elegant introduction to Gaston Leroux's timeless romance and the extremely popular musical it inspired. The story of the talented ingenue, Christine; her lover, Raoul; and the tormented phantom is told in four acts. Economical, graceful prose relates the tale in an abbreviated yet coherent fashion. A flowing narrative style authentically re-creates the drama, mystery, and magic surrounding the Byzantine Paris Opera House and those who walk its corridors. Illustrations executed in a dark, lush palette with a strong sense of line are reminiscent of certain famous New Yorker cartoons in their sophistication and sensibilities. An older read-aloud, this book could be used by teachers as part of an arts curriculum or by parents wishing to introduce their children to musical theater. It also succeeds as an exciting rendition of a classic work of fiction.
