[quote=Anonymous]I’ll stick with it if people say it’s great kids lit, but after so many rave reviews, I’m disappointed. My kid started reading Ch 1 to me last night and it’s all conversational narration with overly casual language. E.B White it ain’t: “Yeah. You could say that.” “Mr. Brunner was this middle aged guy.” I know I’m pretty old fashioned but I don’t need more sources encouraging my kid to start using “Yeah” and calling adults “this guy.” Does it get better? Will this series still be recommended reading 30 years from now? [/quote]
