I’m finding this book a blend of good and bad ideas. For example, a true thought:
“Men have no more time to understand anything. They buy things all ready made at the shops. But there is no shop anywhere where one can buy friendship, and so men have no friends anymore.”
Profound! But then, a few sentences later: “Say nothing. Words are the source of misunderstandings.” :/

So far, not a children’s book at all. It strikes me as a critique of adulthood…which may have its merits, but not when done by a child and for children.
