Happy Saturday! We have been reading books to our AI image generator - and we’re currently on the theme of ‘books that have been made into films’. Can you guess the book from the resulting image?

Click ‘Like’ if you think you know what it is
Click ‘Love’ if you’re read it
…or any other emoji if you’ve seen the film!

The last book was ‘Northern Lights’ by Philip Pullman, which was adapted into the film ‘The Golden Compass. This week we’re moving from the arctic circle to the murky depths of the sea.
