After watching the movie numerous times and wanting more the original story filled the bill. More nuances greater detail and a different style of writing kept my interest throughout the book. Reading other articles about the author and what I got from them was that W.P. Kinsella was accommodated the movie director all the time and to me between the author and the movie director a somewhat different, but equally entertaining story was told by the movie verses the novel. I'm not an avid reader and I can't put into words the writers style, but I liked it and would reccommend it to anyone having seen the movie or not.

Great book that inspired movie "Field of Dreams" which is a selection for my library program called Book & Movie Night at the Library. The idea is that most great movies were inspired by great or interesting books. I'm in Iowa so this story has more meaning for us because that "Field of Dreams" is in Iowa...

Having seen the movie "Field of Dreams" multiple times, I was eager to read the novel upon which it was based. And it is truly magical. I only wish that W. P. Kinsella were still alive so I could thank him personally.
