Relative to the rest of the book, by page 122 you might say the book is getting "exciting". That is a positive comment btw, as there is often pleasure in calm, beautifully descriptive words.

Its magic is that while there may be more words about the game with the little squishy ball, at the same time there are also fewer pages about the game with the little squishy ball.

Page 11 only, and it seems at this limited page number to be about much deeper things than a racket and funny squishy small ball - thank goodness.

The sentences have normal commas, along with full stops and heaven forfend it even has quite marks for speech - again thank goodness.

So far so good.
