Well, they found Bobowicz and made some new friends, got their comics and bicycle back, and avoided the the oyster stew. Surreal and funny. ( ) Daniel Pinkwater reading the book makes it all more fun. It's been days since I've turned the CD in and I'm still smiling! I love the confrontation at the end with the kids, Nick's parents and Vic. It's hilarious. I also loved the old songs. I’m looking forward to listening to more of Daniel Pinkwater’s books. Daniel Pinkwater also has a podcast at http://pinkwater.com/podcast/. If you loved The Hoboken Chicken Emergency as much as I did, you will be delighted to read this eccentric companion novel. My favorite thing was that there was a character named Sean Vergessen, because that's the punchline of a Yiddish joke my grandmother used to tell. ("Sean Vergessen" sounding like the Yiddish for "I forgot.") My only complaint is that if Daniel Pinkwater is going to describe so many Classic Comics I wish he would have mentioned The Black Tulip, which is my favorite. no reviews | add a review
