“This was sort of surreal and had neat art. Great for kids who like something a little different. Guaranteed to impress itself onto their psyche. So read it first to make sure you want that.”

“We bought this book for our niece, and after we read it she said "I would never sell my dad, I love him!" It's a great story and the illustrations are awesome.”

“Cute, hilarious and eye-popping, the story has a basic (albeit silly) premise that allows it the flexibility to go in random and interesting directions. The art is arresting and intricate, giving way to new details with every viewing.”
