You know, there are many YouTube adaptations mentioned on that list - Jane Eyre, The Great Gatsby, Little Women and even Shakespeare's Works. I've taken a look on some of them, but none of them was as interesting as Green Gables Fables. Some of them were kind of boring or I didn't like the way the story was narrated or the person who made that video wasn't sympathetic.

The modern setting is really great thing. I think it all started with The Lizzie Bennet Diaries - the story was set in California in 2012, Lizzie was a mass media student... And the creators found their way to interpret motives from the book to modern era. You know, in the book Lydia ran away with Wickham and she lived with him despite the fact they weren't married. In 19th century it was a big scandal. So they had to came up with an idea of something that is a big scandal nowadays. With these changes you can bring an old story to present days without changing the idea of the book. And that's really great. :) I also like that the story continues on Twitter. It's really interesting that you can see Rachel Lynde's tweets. :D
