Fortunately, the Milk - Neil Gaiman,Skottie Young

For more reviews, check out my blog: Craft-Cycle

A marvelous romp of a story. Complete with dinosaurs, dwarfs, time travel, vampires (err, excuse me, wumpires), and more. Silly, entertaining, and fun.

This fantastic short story will keep you guessing until the end. You never quite know what is going to happen next. Perfect pacing creates a wild ride through space and time.

The book is made even better with the amazing illustrations by Skottie Young. I love seeing his characteristic style and it melded perfectly with Neil Gaiman's excellently strange story.

A great quick read for anyone seeking a little craziness in life.

Yes, this is my first Neil Gaiman. What can I say about it? It was a little fun and a little quirky, but it was really just an okay story. Probably one that is best for established Neil Gaiman fans.

Fortunately, the Milk by Neil Gaiman with illustrations by Skottie Young is simply delightful. It's hard for me to decide which was more enjoyable: the writing or the drawings. Honestly, I think that the reason I enjoyed this book so much was that the two of them paired so well together. This is exactly the kind of story that an imaginative parent would tell their child and embellish over time. The main character of this book is a father who is left alone to watch the kids and who goes out to get milk for breakfast and takes forever to get back home.When he finally returns he spins an impossible yarn to explain his tardiness to his extremely skeptical children. Anyone who has read Gaiman's writing knows that he's an absolutely wonderful fantasy author but it's his sense of humor that makes this book unique. Maybe you've heard of 'dad jokes' before? Well, this is basically one big dad joke accompanied by super cute ink illustrations. 10/10 on all fronts.

 

I absolutely love the illustrations by Skottie Young. This is another one of those books where you want to hang up the illustrations on the wall of your house...at least I do.

This one is a fast, fun read. The pictures add a lot to the laughter inducing ride too. And I loved some of the reference zings.
