Product Description

Product Description
Somewhere, out in the universe, a class of schoolchildren are being given a lecture on Earthlets by the celebrated Dr Xargle. The illustrations make everything clear and the ordinariness of the scenes he shows contrasts vividly with Dr Xargle's interpretation of standard Earthlet behaviour.

5.0 out of 5 stars An amusing look at earth babies, 2 Sep 2002
By A Customer
This witty and hilarious alien interpretation of human babies and baby/parent relationships will have both parents and youngsters giggling. From describing common house cats as ferocious beasts,to portraying weaning as having 'the egg of a hen mangled with a prong tipped into the babies mouth nose and ears' this book is both amusing and easy to identify with for adults. Young children laugh at and enjoy the large and lively pictures of the adventurous baby. My daughter and I read it at bed time at least once a week and after three months we still giggle, if for different reasons.

5.0 out of 5 stars We bought a copy for each set of Grandparents - great fun., 16 Jul 2000
By A Customer
A great book for adults as well as older children. Makes you laugh out loud. The illustrations are what made us interested in this book in the first place as one had been used on a card we bought. They are what make the book so funny. We bought a copy for each set of grandparents. A true insight into the messiness that is kids.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, 26 May 2009
By MIddlestitch (London, UK) - See all my reviews
A priceless little book. The humour works at any number of levels. I bought it as a gift for a four year old, but suspect the parents will enjoy it even more!
