Books Turned Into Musicals

We are quite used to books turning into movies, and even vice versa (this process is called novelization as opposed to dramatization). However, there is quite a bunch of musicals inspired by literature.
Some of the items on this list are known to you as books. Some of them you love for the music and you didn't know there was a book behind it in the first place. However, I am sure you will be surprised to find some of them are actually BOTH! No, really, did you know there was Pride and Prejudice the musical?
