I loved this book! A funny sci-fi adventure with giant spider aliens, flying saucers, two resourceful kids and a most unusual refrigerator.

When architect Elephant visits his friends the penguins in Ice Town - there's a disaster! Fortunately, friendship and cooperation save the day! I love the detail and humor in the illustrations of this book!

This book blew me away from the first page, and I loved everything about it - the narrator, the characters, the form of the action, the humor, the pain. When I came to the end, I didn't  know what to do with myself - the surest sign that a book has taken ahold of you. One of the best ever.
