    <body><![CDATA[Oof - how to say anything sensible about this book!  I remember reading it while ill (and being given milk-toast - something I'd read about in children's books, and found dreadfully disappointing - just soggy toast covered with hot milk?) when I was about 10 or 11 and I loved it.
