"The absurdity of this book is just amazing, weaving elements of space and time travel, a talking dog, a relative that nobody remembers being related to, a great frolicking popsicle, motorcycle apes, and much, much more. Beware false popsicle idols. "

    " A space adventure that's really a tour of Jewish Eastern Europe, as well as an introduction to the Kaballah. And it's for kids. A book that works on every level. A work of moral genius. "

    " Really is funny. Not very significant, not much of a satire/commentary like it would be if it were a 10 year old's Terry Pratchett. More like, imo, a 10 yo's Douglas Adams. Pinkwater's interpretation of Time Travel and Aliens - what's not to like! "

    " I seriously feel like I'm missing something here. The humor was tired and the chapter breaks were placed at arbitrary points, sometimes in the middle of mundane conversations. I stopped reading at chapter 18 after a very boring three pages about popsicles. "
