Stranger in the Mirror

Rating:
Summary: Childhood favorite
Review: The book was abstract to me as a child, and it still holds for me the same feeling of fantasy and mystery. The Lost Lake was a fictional place I dreamt about as a child, and the illustrations of Allen Say were very different from what I was used to. It's a story I believe of a father and son, from what I remember. As a child I loved that book; that's all I can say.

Rating:
Summary: Startling.
Review: This story is startling. It does what Allen Say sets out todo, it alters you. No one writes about this stuff - age-ism -especially not in a children's book and through the powerful medium ofa hallucinatory/fantastic story sequence. It's definitely different and I almost want to say subversive. I wonder what children would think of it.
