Book Reviews of The Old Man And The Sea (Cliffs Notes)

Book Review: helpful product
Summary: 5 Stars

It's cliff notes. They work. I think a person should use it as an additional tool towards understanding some of the writers intentions in the book and not relying on the cliff notes to replace reading the book. This is a wonderful story, written in a way that I could not put it down after about the first few pages. It is an easy read and a small book and you would miss out on a lot if you use the cliff notes incorrectly but as far as cliff notes go this one was very helpful.
