She kept asking sensible questions like why a girl climbing up a drainpipe was suddenly on the ground, how a child who hadn’t eaten in days could stay up night after night without getting tired, or why she was suddenly best friends with a boy she met briefly at one breakfast?

Okay, I'm going to be kind with this one, I'm an adult reading a book intended for young kids and the one thing which irritated me is probably entertaining for children.

I don't know about you but the way he plays with the greys on his palette makes them so incredibly detailed. We kept talking about how great it would be if there was a giant monster made up of all different monsters.

I found myself questioning this story when I first started it as I wasn't sure that I would be able to get into it but I was wrong.
