Yann Martel, “Life of Pi”?
Yann Martel, “Life of Pi”?
Nope.
gonna try again:
short story – “Lady or Tiger”?
I don’t remember the author, I remember reading it in like, 7th grade.
Nope.
Here’s a clue:
This beloved book is a SEQUEL to another book on this list. Which … I think you might have already guessed.
Ack… I knew this sounded familar. This is from Through the Looking Glass. (thanks for the hint on the post from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland…)
Yes – this is Thru the looking glass. (I think it has to do with the dream: was the Red King dreaming of Alice or was Alice dreaming of the Red King – something like that)
I thought it was “Encyclopedia Brown and the Case of the Treasure Hunt”. But I guess the upside down answer is really the last line.
I really wish I’d got here earlier to guess this. It just so perfectly encapsulates the whole book.
dorkafork:
The upside down answer! Oh my God, the memories that just came back with that image… :)

Thought you would appreciate it. :)
