Thanks for the link.

I just read "the Story-Teller". I liked it, but I have to see if a child will get the irony. The "bitter" story itself is just as lame as auntie's saccharine stories. I was surprised my d.'s ten-year-old friend gave her that book in the first place, I would expect children this old to be allergic to all sots of correct books. On the other hand, I myself still always side with the good guys. So maybe there are different degrees of the reader's gullibility.
