Pretty much one of the worst kids books I have ever read. The story is about a little boy named Mel, who trips and falls into another dimension. He escapes and runs home to tell his parents and his father states, "Mel, do something useful. Go wash the car." Later in the book the father tells Mel, "...when you grow up, your life can be garbage, just like mine". There are two pages that the reader is asked to fold in half to "make Mel disappear" or "reappear"...more

This is another bizarre book from Yorinks and Egielski. I actually enjoyed this one more than "Hey, Al!" So how often have you had this happen... you're walking down the sidewalk, you trip over a rock, and suddenly you find yourself in another dimension, where everything is (wait for it)... pointy. Never happened to you? You've lived a charmed life, my friend. Read this book and live vicariously through Mel.

My favorite part was when he ran and tripped and fell into a new dimension. I tried to balance on one leg with my eyes closed and one finger touching my nose the way the boy did in the book but I can't seem to get it right.

A little bizzar, confusing at times.

Mel trips and disappears into the pointy dimension in this chaotic tale of unbelieving parents. Novelty of folding papers over to create two new pictures.
