My parents bought me this book when I was young, and I just love it. I still own my copy. When I tried to get other books by this writer, I found they are all out of print. Too bad. I think he speak right to the heart and humour of children. I identify with the little (and extremely ugly) girl who has trouble with putting on her coat, slides upside down the slide, and wants to run with her baby brother's stroller rather than walk. She is the impulses and desires in each one of us.
