          <body><![CDATA[This book was such a fun read-aloud for my 9 year old son... who wants BIG adventures!  But now he is after me to get some to get some Yoohoo so we can make some boats.  We both laughed out loud many times -- it was such a simple story.  Would have enjoyed MORE.]]></body>

          <body><![CDATA[I loved how this book tackled philosophical arguments and gave us a glimpse into the complicated condition of being human.  I would love to hang out with Cass in real life -- not to know anything about the mark, but just to have deep discussions.  Great read from a fellow Tenner!]]></body>
