This is not a book for children.It looks like a children's book. It has pictures. It has a saccharine-sweet title. The main characters are a little girl and her teddy bear. But all of that is just protective coloration. The truth is, this is a book for adults with a dark sense of humor and an appreciation of old-school faerie tales.There are three separate endings to the book. Depending on where you stop, you are left with an entirely different story. One ending is sweet, another is horrible. The last one is the true ending, the one with teeth in it.The Adventures of the Princess and Mr. Whiffle is a dark twist on the classic children's picture-book. I think of it as Calvin and Hobbes meets Coraline, with some Edward Gorey mixed in.Simply said: This is not a book for children.

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. Illustrated by Taylor, Nate (illustrator). Stated First Edition. Signed by the author on the title page with an amusingly ironic inscription to a named individual. Crisp, clean pages; no owners' marks; the rear board has a slight curve, and the dust jacket bears a touch of crimping at corners, otherwise excellent. Jacket is now protected in a clear sleeve. The gold seal on the front says, "This s*** is not for kids - seriously." The story is macabre even by my standards - and my childhood lullaby was "Rickety Tickety Tin". ; Signed by Author.
