Some odd choices in the typography. I am confident they are meant to be that way, but what they mean is not clear to me.
resiliance rather than resilience, grey instead of gray, single quotes and double quotes used interchangeably (noting different speakers maybe? Not sure.) Surely the proofreader at Grosset & Dunlap spotted these but its too subtle for me to sort out the intent but too obvious to be an accident.

The proofreader at Ace was asleep on the job when this came out. Inconsistent punctuation, spelling that flips for no reason between US and UK usage, and words that are just outright misspellings. I can forgive the made-up contractions and dialect speech because that at least has a purpose even if it is too much like {author:Joel Chandler Harris|7320] But the rest I wish they had had a more attentive proofreader.
