Fortunately, the Milk by Neil Gaiman

Fortunately, the Milk

by Neil Gaiman

From multi-award-winning Neil Gaiman comes a spectacularly silly, mind-bendingly clever, brilliantly bonkers adventure - with lip-smackingly gorgeous illustrations by Chris Riddell.

Mum's away. Dad's in charge. There's no milk. So Dad saves the day by going to buy some.

Really, that's all that happens. Very boring. YAAAAAAAAAWN.

There are absolutely none of the following inside: GLOBBY GREEN ALIENS! INTERGALACTIC POLICE! PIRATES! And most definitely NOT a time-travelling hot-air balloon piloted by the brilliant Professor Steg ...

Don't miss this gloriously entertaining novel about time-travel, dinosaurs, milk and dads.

Always a delight :-)

Also, so me. At 5 I sat my mom down and said we had to talk. I said Santa isn’t real, mom, is he? She goes, clearly a bit panicked, why would you think that honey?! I said well for one, we keep the front door locked at night and have no chimney. Number two, is Santa can’t possibly have the exact same wrapping paper and handwriting as you and dad, mom. ;-). She was holding her breath during my little shpeal and then finally exhaled when I was done. She said, you really are too smart for your own good, Ashley.

Haha; Then I said so about the tooth fairy and Easter bunny...
