What a cute, fun book! The Lost Galumpus had something for everyone! Silly animals, cavemen, a robot, time travel, humor, and a great ending!
Gilly the Possum’s understanding of the relationships and personalities of the animals, mixed with his curiosity and streak of naughtiness, make him the perfect narrator for this book! He carried you through the crazy adventure, tying it all together along the way.
The cavemen descriptions and antics are hilarious. They were a perfect way to keep everyone on their toes and entertain the reader at the same time.
This would be a great read for students who want a light, easy story that moves quickly and will keep them giggling. This book may not change history, but it will put a smile and the readers face!!
