Anyone ever read it? If so what did you think? I recommend it. Found it at a library book sale over 10 years ago and finally got around to reading it. Saw the movie as a kid and loved it but surprised at how much the movies cuts out.

I liked the book. I thought that starting each chapter with the next sequential letter in the alphabet was clever. The movie covers the first half of the book, and the second movie picked and chose random parts of the book to feature while telling a similar but different story. I've shown my kids the movies, and will go through the book with them.
Also I wish there was an anthology of all the “stories for another time” that are mentioned
Such a good book. Made me feel like a kid again and the movie ignited a passion for reading due to the book store owners speech. What were the 3 and 4th movies about?
