I couple of years ago I read a report in the press of the number of books owned by different households (what percentage have ten books, what percentage 500, etc.) Does anyone know a source for these statistics (or similar), or perhaps remember the figures?

the book is about a boy whose name is charlie
and his friend dies early on in the story,
the book is like a diary, he is writing to someone, but who?,
dosnt matter who, but he is very original, he is basically a "wallflower" and his friends names are Sam, Patrick, and Mary Elizabeth. sam is a girl and patrick is her step brother who is gay, and charlie went to a party with them and ate a brownie with pot in it and he wanted a milkshake. in this story he cries alot, the panicky type, he feels bad for anything remotely bad he does. its a good book, if you havnt read it you should.

I remember a book about archeologists. Modern day earth is frozen over, and then like 200 years in the future, they uncover it and try to figure out what everything is. Then they misinterpret it all. Like a person sitting on the toilet with a shower cap on is supposed to be a king on his throne with his crown. It's an illustrated children's book.

Can anyone help me out?

Please cite his novel(s) you've read, e.g. "The Temple of the Golden Pavillon", etc. so that I'd try reading his other novels.
