Funny and quirky. Told in 1 stream of consciousness chapter, this would be a funny read aloud.
My 9 year old recently finished this and kept telling me how hilarious it was, so I had to give it a try. It was definitely very fun kid humor. Love me some Neil Gaiman.
Hilarious! I cannot believe that I never read this one before.
Just had the amazing privilege to have this book read to me by Mr Gaiman and friends. Fabulous book, can't wait to read it again. A book all fathers should read to their kids!

Listened to the audio book. It's a quick one with Neil Gaiman narrating. I think my kids would enjoy it too.
See if you can lay hands on the Foyles edition of this - beautifully done and includes a great little metal bookmark etched with a [a:Chris Riddell|59749|Chris Riddell|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/authors/1276920548p2/59749.jpg] illustration.
Like a great dad story you've heard in audiobook format.
