When he and his sister begin to play with these trinketsincluding a crystal cube that magnifies the unimaginable and a strange doll with removable organs that don’t quite correspond to those of the human bodytheir parents grow concerned. And they should be. For the items are changing the way the children think and perceive the world around themfor better or worse.
