Mom's Review
In a tone reminiscent of Jack the Narrator's from Fairly Stupid Tales and with an atmosphere of madness like that of Wonderland, The Story of Everything makes it eminently possible to believe even more than six impossible things before breakfast. This anthology of stories is a wild ride from a story about literally nothing to "The Last Story" - readers are prompted to imagine and illustrations command examination. This is one import that demands engagement and work on the audience's part. What an excellent whirlwind of childhood wonderment!
