A Good Book!

I have just started reading Philip Pullman’s Dark Materials trilogy. I bought the books at home a few years ago but never had chance to read them before I left. I am really enjoying the books and I have to agree with what Phil himself said

"I've been surprised by how little criticism I've got. Harry Potter's been taking all the flak… Meanwhile, I've been flying under the radar, saying things that are far more subversive than anything poor old Harry has said. My books are about killing God."

Here’s a little trivia for any Welsh peeps reading this. Philip Pullman was educated at Ysgol Ardudwy school in Harlech, Gwynedd! I’ve been there!

Just one thing though. Why do the Americans have to change everything?
The Philosophers Stone became The Sorcerers Stone
Northern Lights became The Golden Compass
Why?
