Fortunately, the Milk

De: Neil Gaiman

Narrado por: Neil Gaiman

An absolute delight of a madcap story for the young (and young-at-heart) by New York Times bestselling author Neil Gaiman, with equal parts pirates and piranhas, adventure and aliens, oddity and love.

""I bought the milk,"" said my father. ""I walked out of the corner shop, and heard a noise like this: t h u m m t h u m m. I looked up and saw a huge silver disc hovering in the air above Marshall Road.""

""Hullo,"" I said to myself. ""That's not something you see every day. And then something odd happened.""

Find out just how odd things get in this hilarious story of time travel and breakfast cereal, expertly told by Newbery Medalist and bestselling author Neil Gaiman.

Perfect to read with your kid

While this may be better in print due to the lovely illustration, Neil Gaiman brings a delightful tale to life with his wonderful narration! A short quick read for you and your child, or just you if you’d like!

Great Imagine...

Loved it Creatures and situations you don't often meet on an errand to pick up the milk!

Awesome book you need to read it!

Loved it! You need to read this book, me and my mom read this book together, and we loved it.

Absolutely delightful

A very charming short story wonderfully told. Neil Gaiman never disappoints and I look forward to anything he narrates

I loved this.

no seriously I loved this. if I could have given it more stars I would have. I'm quite sure things like this have happened to me in the past.

Hilarious and adorable

My kids and I had so fun much reading this book! It has become a bit of a tradition to read it again together once in a while.
Neil Gaiman is amazing ❤️

Cute- Tall Tale

Even as an adult I find these stories by Gaiman entertaining and fun! It was short, and fun, and it would be good for a road trip with the family.

so GOOD

best story ever to be written ☺😊😀😀😁😂😄😀😊 lol I love this book so much ahh!

Gaiman is story-telling comfort food

Gaiman does his best when he is talking. luckily for most of his books, he tells his own story. "The milk" has some great bedtime level creativity and fun logic he reuses in many of his other tales. Milk is sacred, pined for, is a sign of, and possibly world ending. What a fun trip into Gaiman's imagination once again.

A wonderful flight of fantasy!

I am so happy to find this little book! It gives the same feeling of hilarious absurdity that is also so appealing in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I only wish I had been so creative with my explanations to my children when they were small and looking to me with their constant Why's and What's and When's. A great read for kids and adults!
