Juniper is an old favorite and I was delighted to find it in a digital format. The book is as good as I remember but the format in which it was digitized is terrible. Each page of the text is some sort of image file. The writing is so small that it is hard to read, and the font can't be resized in settings. The images of the pages can be zoomed in upon, but then the pages won't turn until you zoom back out. As much as I like Juniper and enjoyed revisiting the story, and as much as I liked the sequels, Wise Child and Coleman when I read them, I am reluctant to purchase them as this format made reading the Juniper such a chore.
