What's funny about Katri, Girl of the Meadows is that even though it's based on a Finnish book and takes place in Finland, it was never released in Finland.
>>
>>78768353
no one likes Finland, not even Finland.

This, and the actual novel it's based on, is pretty underappreciated.

Are The Last Unicorn and The Hobbit considered children's books? Rankin-Bass made movies out of them, also with the Narnia series iirc.

>>78766315
Fantastic planet was based on a French novel. It was finally translated to English a few years ago.
>>
>>78775049
The Little Prince also had an anime adaption that ran on Nick Jr back before anime was a word.
>>
>>78775049
It's still a really, really good series that is very true to the book. I think there's an english dub out there if that's your concern. Also Miyazaki worked on it.
>>
>>78775103
Only saw half of one episode of the CGI version before I had to shut it off. I couldn't handle how far off it was from the other series and the book.

there's a very thin line between anime and outsourced animation in the 80's cartoons, and /co/ has been always very afraid about it.

If you want to watch something godawful and get a good laugh out of it. There's a series of these shitty literature animations. I bought it for $5 at BAM a few years back, best money ever spent... it's so horrible I love it.

it's the same kind of animation I remember from a robinson crusoe cartoon I once watched

>>78766315
Just check out the anime in the World Classic Theater collection. Some well know novels been adapted.

I hated that book so much, but the animation made me appreciate it more.

fairly decent for what it is, but the franchise could really use a modern version(it'd probably do well as a Netflix Original series)

>>78766315
Anne of Green Gables! I loved the book and the cartoon. Well, it was made by Miyazaki. So I suppose it's actually an anime, but it's such a good one.

I haven't read the book this was based on, so I'm kind of unsure if it was actually a children's book.

Chuck Jones did some really good Jungle Book adaptations. Rikki Tikki Tavi, The White Seal, and Mowgli's Brothers. He also did a very good Christmas Carol cartoon.

Oh and the feature length Phantom Tollbooth movie.
