    <body><![CDATA[So, my eleven year old son and I both read this book.  My son read it first and said, &quot;Wow, this author really likes Upper Case letters!&quot;  I read it and said, &quot;WHAT was that all ABOUT?&quot;  <br/><br/>Overall - I loved the focus on a child's imagination, feelings of insecurity, self-doubt and angst in the form of &quot;What are these strange people called grown ups?&quot;<br/><br/>I found the upper case thing SUPER ANNOYING and was felled by a sense of WORRY and PANGEMONIUM (as Kaline might say) the more I viewed each page.<br/><br/>When I finished reading, I asked my son how he felt about this book and he said he found it funny and interesting.  By the by, he liked the upper case letters and looked at me like I had SEVENTEEN heads when I said I found them bothersome.  FIGURES - after all, he IS eleven and I AM a grownup.]]></body>
