The Unlikely Adventures of Mabel Jones

Mabel Jones

De: Will Mabbitt

Narrado por: Toby Jones

A funny fantasy-adventure series for fans of Lemony Snicket, Neil Gaiman, and Cressida Cowell.

Have you ever picked your nose? Have you ever picked your nose and eaten it? Have you ever picked your nose, eaten it, and, by doing so, opened a portal to a world run by pirates?

Mabel Jones has.

Kidnapped, Mabel is forced to serve aboard The Feroshus Maggot with the strangest crew you’ll ever meet. And the captain - an odious wolf named Idryss Ebenezer Split - won’t let her go until she helps the pirates uncover the treasure they seek. Mabel’s voyage takes her across the Greasy Pole of Certain Death, into the belly of a whale, and underground to a decrepit crypt. And she does it all...in pajamas!

Listen to this audiobook if you dare. You are promised a most unlikely adventure.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"From the first few sentences, I knew I was in for a uniquely wild and witty ride. If Lewis Carroll were writing for Monty Python, I imagine it might look something like this." (Christopher Healy, author of the Hero’s Guide series)

"A speedy, splashy, snort-out-loud lark... Clever and fun.” (Jacqueline West, author of the New York Times best-selling Books of Elsewhere series)

"First in a series, this comical novel should become a readaloud favorite." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)

ok I loved it

this is awesome for that I am so grateful Will Mabbitt that you made this book

Written for 5-year olds yet too violent

I bought this as some reviews had Lemony Snicket comparisons. The writing is far, far below Lemony Snicket. The main character, Mabel Jones, is captured by pirates because she picked her nose and ate the boogies so I thought 5-year-olds might like it but later the characters are very violent and mutilate one another. The characters are all unlikeable and are poorly developed. The plot is also thin and poorly developed. I was hoping for a fun book but it is a strange mix of violence and fart jokes.
