Why read it?

1 author picked Good Zap, Little Grog! as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

A little cave boy from another world hops through his day while encountering bizarre-looking flora and fauna with equally funny names. He is greeted in the morning, afternoon, and night with a friendly “Zoodle Oop” “Yoop Dooz” and “Good Zap.” The pages blend a perfect mixture of alien and familiar. Give the book a whirl and you’ll be enjoying gems like these: “The ooglets are tuzzling…” “…all the blue zamblots are covered in flumms,” “A tiny paroobie is churling ‘Zlink-zlink!’”

From Aaron's list on nonsense in children’s books.
