Cute, imaginative children's book which is entirely the story that a father gives his children to explain why it took him so long to go to the store and get the milk. From alien abductions to mad professor dinosaurs to volcano god temples, time travel, and piranhas, the story that father tells weaves wildly all over until it finally delivers him back to the kitchen with milk in hand. A quick read for adults but amusing, and with charming black and white illustrations that kids will enjoy.
