    This book didn’t traumatise me but I remember it was really dark and maybe too dark for kids.

    Remembering the guy with the long legs cutting fingers off, this is horror movie material how I remember it… maybe traumatise it did

      I still remember the soup standing ontop of the grave of the boy that didnt want to eat and so he just died. Also how thin he was in the last drawing of him. It was haunting. th-1674725500

      After 4 days he was “as thin as a thread”.

        I haven’t thought about this book or story in over 22years, and now I remember how dark the impressions were.

      Most of the book yes, but the kid with animal cruelty and the racism story, were good stuff.

        Soft shits create hard times and hard times create hard shits.

        If you have too hard shits tho you should look into your diet
