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.

Terribly silly. Doesn't quite live up to the standards I'm used to by Neil Gaiman. But maybe I'm just not good with children's books.
