Fortunately, The Milk

by: Neil Gaiman
I picked this one up while at BookCon back in the spring and read it in like one sitting on the airplane on my way home. It was really silly and fun and exactly what I was hoping it would be from the cover. It spun a delightful tale that felt very much like a parent making stuff up as he went, but one who has serious skills with plot. haha This is a really short review because I blew through it, so I'll just say that it is definitely recommended.

"I said, "You're a stegosaurus!" / "I am an inventor," he said. "I have invented the thing we are traveling in, which I call Professor Steg's Floaty-Ball-Person-Carrier." / "I call it a balloon," I said. / "Professor Steg's Floaty-Ball-Person-Carrier is the original name," he said. "And right now we are one hundred and fifty million years in the future." / "Actually," I said, "we are about three hundred years in the past." / "Do you like hard-hairy-wet-crunchers?" he asked. "Coconuts?" I guessed. "I named them first," said Professor Steg."
