One morning, after their mother has gone away on a trip, the
kids realize that they are out of milk for breakfast so their father decides to
go get some.  He is gone for a terribly
long time and when he comes back he tells the kids a fantastic story about why
he was late, that includes aliens, pirates, a stegosaurus, a volcano, the Eye
of Splod, and a Floaty-Ball-Person-Carrier, just to name a few.  This is pure Neil Gaiman and is a lot of
fun.  A great read for kids who like
humor.  Reluctant readers will like that
it is short with a lot of white space and illustrations.
