Fortunately, the Milk

I'm outside of the target audience for this book by about 30+ years but still found it hilarious. I mean, I love everything that Neil Gaiman writes so this isn't entirely unexpected, but I'm actually surprised by how much I enjoyed it considering it's a middle grade novel. It's kind of a
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
for children, minus the towels and with some dinosaurs and pirates and a time machine hot air balloon ... or, err, Floaty-Ball-Person-Carrier. I listened to this on audiobook but I'm planning to grab the ebook from the library for my son. He's going to love it!

Thanks, Jodi! Yes, indeed. 😀 My son is a huge graphic novel fan, which is great, but I'm always trying to get him to read more chapter books too (with limited success). 😆
Great review, Jamie! I wanted to read this one too. Maybe I still will someday :)

Glad it was such a fun read, even if you might not be the intended audience. The again, age is just a number. Good review, Jamie.

I read this to my kiddo a few times and they loved it!
