Query: Not for young children

I disliked this book for several reasons. First, the storyshows the world as almost entirely evil. All the characters except forone man and the puppy are either actively mean or just completely uncaring. The illustrator had some talent, but no forethought concerning how the illustrations might come across to the young reader. They were frightenning and conducive to nightmares.
