A Whole Nother Story

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Jeffrey Stewart Timmins. This volume follows an inventor, his three children, and their psychic hairless dog as they run away from bad guys trying to steal Dad's latest invention, a time machine. An unapologetically intrusive narrator (à la Lemony Snicket) relates events. Though the author's pontificating is rarely as funny or insightful, Snicket fans craving something similar might enjoy this adventure.
