This story is absolutely NOT for young children, as the nursery characters that are popular in it tend to meet with some rather graphic and violent deaths. There's also a lot of other adult content such as sex, drinking, etc.

I didn't feel it was an overly remarkable story, but it's still pretty good with wit and humor. If you've ever read the Nursery Crime novels by Jasper Fforde you may like this one. It's quite possible it inspired Fforde's work, since it was published earlier.

I'd recommend this one simply for it's uniqueness.
