Or something written in the style of Franz Kafka.

"Childrens book" ... was the goal.

I don't think many children are into Franz Kafka. Kafka is more for cynical grownups. (And teenagers about to become it). It was very Kafkaesque, having to read Kafka in school ..

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Little_Fable is probably a close as Kafka got to a children's book.

"Alas", said the mouse, "the whole world is growing smaller every day. At the beginning it was so big that I was afraid, I kept running and running, and I was glad when I saw walls far away to the right and left, but these long walls have narrowed so quickly that I am in the last chamber already, and there in the corner stands the trap that I am running into."

"You only need to change your direction," said the cat, and ate it up.
