“I liked this quite a bit more than Matilda, maybe because it is obviously fanciful from the start. It’s hard to fault its “nice guys win” message. I loved the language in this… the whimsy instantly brings Dr. Seuss to mind. In fact, I may have to add “whizzpopper” to my own vocabulary (what a fun word to introduce to my niece and nephew!).
As a side note, this audio book was narrated by the tragically departed Natasha Richardson, and she did a wonderful job.”
