And somebody left the Time Machine on, so . . .

From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| PreS-Gr. 2. Each family is odd is in its own way, but none is as eccentric as young Wilbur Robinson's. Joyce expands on his 1990 title just in time for the story's film adaptation, Meet the Robinsons, next year. The basic story is the same: Wilbur's best friend describes a visit to the Robinson house, which begins when a giant octopus opens the door. New spreads include images of an uncle who throws snowballs and dinosaurs lounge poolside (the time machine was left on). The endpapers and cover have also been redesigned. As in the original, the real fun is in the tension between the deadpan words and the fantastical pictures: "It's kind of dull around here today," says Wilbur as a giant locomotive steams through the hall and an uncle shoots himself from a cannon. Save this for small groups, which will most appreciate the wondrous visual details. Gillian Engberg |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| A Day with Wilbur Robinson' by William Joyce is about a funny story. The boys go looking for Grandfather Robinson and his teeth. They meet some weird people along the way.My favorite parts were the big W's drawn as part of the words. I really liked the pictures.I think kids age 4 - 8 would like it. I think both boys and girls would like it.I give it 5 stars.Reviewed by Young Mensan Eliot, age 5 |
