Review: It is always dangerous to reread books you loved as a child. Will they stand the test of time, or won't they? I loved this book while in primary school, so when I recently found it at the library, I thought I'd reread it. I only remembered the basic premise of it (boy discovers he can pull 10-kroner bills out of the pocket of his pants) and nothing else, and was somewhat disturbed by the ending. Had I remembered that, I probably wouldn't have bothered with the reread.
