Would I have liked this book as a kid? I...don't know. I can't really remember much from when I was a little kid, the only book I can really remember my mom reading to me when I was young was Eragon. Although I may have enjoyed listening to someone stumbling through attempting to say a few of the tongue twisters in it, I just can't remember it.
