Gub Gub's Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Gub Gub's Book (Hardcover)
Many wonderful references to food, as well as numerous plays on words. This book reminded me of "Haroun and the Sea of Stories". A very interesting, and enjoyable book.

not the best dr dolittle book, but entertaining,
By spacedog "spacedog7" (boston, ma United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gub Gub's Book (Hardcover)
gub-gub is one of my favorite dr dolittle characters. his book, selections from his "encyclopaedia of food", is entertaining, although it reads less like a dr dolittle book and more like roald dahl. most of the stories are kind of whimsical parodies, so there's a story about a famous food detective named "sherbet scones" and a three-part "epicnic" about a "Picnic King". there's also a recount of "the war of the tomatoes". there's some funny dialogue among the other animals as they comment on the stories. overall this a decent read if you love dr dolittle, although i imagine some of the stories would be less engaging for kids than the other dr dolittle books.
