Daniel Pinkwater’s new children’s book, The Yggyssey is currently available to read online. The Yggysey takes place in the same world as his previous book, the Neddiad, and contains some of the same characters, but can also stand alone. As a special bonus, visitors to the online reader can listen to an audio file of the first chapter, read by the author himself.
From the jacket:
The Yggyssey is set a few years after the events recounted in The Neddiad. Yggdrasil Birnbaum, progeny of the illustrious Captain Buffalo Birnbaum and denizen of the venerable Hermione Hotel, is our guide through this epic tale of Hollywood hijinks.
