O…kay… why did I buy that, again? I had sworn to give up on Gaiman. Oh, wait, that’s why (and, also, to give him another last chance, since everybody around is still praising him). So, yeah, alright, the illustrations are very nice, and if I had a bedroom worth decorating I could cut the pages off and stick them to the walls (all the more easily as my copy came with poor binding) and that would be very meta and all. But, apart from that, when it comes to the book as a whole, and the story an dall… for someone who’s more than four years old and isn’t learning to read, what’s the point?
