My 11-year-old God daughter is absorbed in reading it and and thinks it's hilarious. She loves the sarcastic Toaster, Blade, the heroic electric carving knife. Can Blade rescue his girlfriend Forque from Zack ,the real life boy who bullies his little brother and sister, before it's too late? I've been reading it too and was drawn into the world of droll kitchen gadgets who get together to escape the scrapheap from page one, A delightful and engaging full-length novel, tremendous value.

This is a fun read about a group of kitchen gadgets escaping in pursuit of a better life. The characters are lifelike and endearing, with plenty of internal intrigue going on. However they pull together as a group to set out on their mission. I highly recommend it to children and adults alike and hope there will be a follow-up!

I loved this book and so did my granddaughter. If I say that it's a well paced, intelligently written and witty story for kids of all ages that brings Toy Story to mind, then I hope that will convey how enjoyable this book is. I enjoyed reading it to her as much as she enjoyed listening. Pixar are you listening?
