Publisher's Note Unavailable for several years, the five complete novels gathered in this volume have won Daniel Pinkwater legions of fans since the first was published in 1978. Here are comments from three of those admirers, responding to the announcement that this omnibus was in the works:
Industry Reviews "Daniel Pinkwater is so obviously the funniest writer of children's books that he should be made a Living National Treasure....B-movies, science fiction, satire, touches of mystical philosophy and nostalgia--these are the ingredients of Pinkwater's novels. For readers of any age, the result is as tasty as a serving of Horthian Florff, indisputably the finest junk food in the known universe." Washington Post Book World - Michael Dirda (09/07/1997)
