Review: I really enjoyed this one! Basically the book is a long series of hilarious puns, with a very simple journey-style typical children's fantasy plot (and, yes, the protagonist, Milo, does end up changed by his experiences). Sample quote: "You see, years ago I was just an ordinary bee minding my own business, smelling flowers all day, and occasionally picking up part-time work in people's bonnets."
Time: 23 hours I guess. Breaks for a trip to a bar, chatting to Noah, sleeping, a trip to the library and several hours helping to plan for holiday club. I enjoyed this book rather more than the previous few. But I have to say, Noah, that this game would be much more fun if you started playing it too!
I love this one too, I read it when I was little and just recently re-read it. How could you have missed it until now?!
