Riassunto

When a father runs out to buy milk for his children's breakfast cereal, the last thing he expects is to be abducted by aliens, and he soon finds himself transported through time and space on an extraordinary adventure, where the fate of the universe depends on him and the milk--but will his children believe his wild story? By a Newbery Medal-winning author.

Recensione:

Gaiman knocks it out of the park again with this imaginative story. (School Library Journal)

This would also make a wonderful readaloud, but don’t be surprised if the kids insist that it be read in one sitting--and maybe with a side of cookies and milk. (Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books)

“[A] delightful tale.” (Wall Street Journal)

“If your kids still allow you to read aloud to them, this book is for you.” (Newsday)

“[A]n astounding tale...an absolute delight to read out loud....one part Douglas Adams, one part Doctor Who, and one part The Usual Suspects.” (boingboing.com)

“It’s hard not to love a novel that borrows equally from Calvin and Hobbes and The Usual Suspects. If you read only one book this year, a story with dancing dwarfs is always a wise choice.” (Kirkus Reviews)
