Description
"Hilarious. . . . The book is a lot like life, but with more bears, as well as mice in nightshirts. . . . Utterly, endearingly ridiculous." - Kirkus Reviews When their father decides to compete in the speed-knitting world championship, Nick and Maxine are happy to stay with their babysitter, Mrs. Noodlekugel, along with her talking cats and four mice who wear glasses. What they don't expect is a dripping-wet, whiskered man in the kitchen the next morning! Captain Noodlekugel has left his seafaring life to train animals for the circus, and he's even brought with him a hefty bear named Drooly for practice. When Drooly goes missing, the siblings must try to figure out where a big clumsy bear might go!
ReviewsFans of Mrs. Noodlekugel's delightfully wacky and whimsical world will rejoice in Pinkwater's newest offering.... Pinkwater presents another silly glimpse into the world of Mrs. Noodlekugel and her talking cats and mice. -School Library Journal The appeal is the loopy conversations about sardines-and the pictures.... Utterly, endearingly ridiculous. -Kirkus Reviews Abundant descriptions and eccentric humor showcase Pinkwater's considerable ability to entertain. The amusing line drawings support the story. Fans will be lining up for this one -Booklist
