{Review} Fortunately, The Milk @neilhimself @NightOwlReviews

Fortunately, the Milk
"I bought the milk," said my father. "I walked out of the corner shop, and heard a noise like this: T h u m m t h u m m. I looked up and saw a huge silver disc hovering in the air above Marshall Road."

"Hullo," I said to myself. "That's not something you see every day. And then something odd happened."

Find out just how odd things get in this hilarious story of time travel and breakfast cereal, expertly told by Newbery Medalist and bestselling author Neil Gaiman and illustrated by Skottie Young.

Biography

I make things up and write them down. Which takes us from comics (like SANDMAN) to novels (like ANANSI BOYS and AMERICAN GODS) to short stories (some are collected in SMOKE AND MIRRORS) and to occasionally movies (like Dave McKean's MIRRORMASK or the NEVERWHERE TV series, or my own short film A SHORT FILM ABOUT JOHN BOLTON).

In my spare time I read and sleep and eat and try to keep the blog at www.neilgaiman.com more or less up to date.






5 stars

If you want a fun and inventive story of a father’s determination to get Milk to his kids for breakfast then this is the book for you! this book is filled with everything from Pirates to Dino Time Travelers. With cute line drawings this is one book that will grab all kids imagination. I really want this publihser/author to come out with a coloring book with the drawings from this book.  It would give kids just one more reason to love it.  Which as I go to look for this one for this review. Of course it has disappeared to my girls!  Where they have been reading it each night before bed since I received it. 
"*I received a copy of this book for free to review, this in no way influenced my review, all opinions are 100% honest and my own."
