Product Information
Age range 6 to 9 Mick is a good kid, but maybe he can use just a little guidance. But it's unclear who will be guiding whom, because Mick's brother came home from Tibet with the self-proclaimed Guru Lumpo Smythe-Finkel and his dog Lhasa--and then promptly settled both of them in Mick's bedroom. The thing about this kind of guru is that he doesn't seem to know exactly what he's trying to do. He sure does seem to be hungry, though. So Mick agrees to something like a quest, roaming the suburbs with the oddest group of misfits: Lumpo and Lhasa; graffiti-fanatic Verne; and Verne's unusual friend Molly. Molly is a Dwergish girl--don't worry if you don't know what that is yet--and she seems to be going off the rails a bit. Along the way, the gang will get invited to a rollicking ghost party, consult a very strange little king, and actually discover the truth about Heaven. Or a version of the truth anyway, because in a Daniel Pinkwater tale, the truth is never the slightest bit like what you're expecting. The inimitable Daniel Pinkwater (The Hoboken Chicken Emergency) brings his zany wit and wisdom to a gentle middle-grade adventure following a kid's off-the-beaten-path journey, featuring an unfocused spiritual guide, a not-quite-dwarf, a graffiti 'artist,' a ghost whale, and mystical shenanigans galore. 'Crazy in Poughkeepsie is a ludicrous romp reminiscent of the Muppets! This is a book that will make you laugh, grin, and maybe look for more whimsy in your own world.' -- Beth Cato, author of The Clockwork Dagger 'A magic that's not like anyone else's.' -- Neil Gaiman, author of American Gods

" Crazy in Poughkeepsie is a ludicrous romp reminiscent of the Muppets! Weirdness is positive, wonderful, and everywhere in Pinkwater''s writing. This is a book that will make you laugh, grin, and maybe look for more whimsy in your own world." --Beth Cato, author of The Clockwork Dagger "The Pinkwaterverse is a place of delight and camaraderie, wordplay and weirdness, magic and epic sojourns. Each Pinkwater novel is a novelty and unmistakably part of his vast literary legacy. Crazy in Poughkeepsie is a trip to whale heaven, an afterlife that we can all aspire to." --Cory Doctorow, author of Little Brother "Daniel Pinkwater''s new novel is a magical ''bombination,'' which is to say a slow hum that starts soft and then wraps around you with snappy wit and ghostly music that makes you dance. It''s a hum that gathers all together-short, tall, odd, activist, artist, teen and guru-until you realise that you''re at the party of your life." --Jewelle Gomez, author of the Gilda Stories "Opening the pages of Crazy in Poughkeepsie was like buying a ticket back to the all the weirdness and wonder of being a kid. I''m pretty sure we passed the Phantom Tollbooth during the road trip!" --Jacqueline Carey, author of Starless Praise for Daniel Pinkwater "Daniel Pinkwater is so obviously the funniest writer of children''s books that he should be made a Living National Treasure." -- Washington Post Book World "Pinkwater is the uniquest. And so are his books. Each uniquer than the last . . . A delight in oddness. A magic that''s not like anyone else''s." --Neil Gaiman, author of American Gods "Daniel Pinkwater helped to shape me as a storyteller and his books have delighted generations of young readers. We''re so lucky to have him as a guide to all the realms of the beautifully weird and whimsical." --Charlie Jane Anders, author of All the Birds in the Sky "No author has ever captured the great fun of being weird, growing up as a happy mutant, unfettered by convention, as well as Pinkwater has." --Boing Boing "Pinkwater writes for, and about, people who are not ashamed to look at life a little differently." --Kathy Ceceri, Wired "Pinkwater is arguably Pratchett-for-kids, Wodehouse-for-new-millennium-juniors. Or, if you like, Rocky and Bullwinkle in written form, with equally zany illustrations." -- Green Man Review "Reading Daniel Pinkwater--as a kid and as an adult was hugely important to my development as a writer and a human being. Meeting another Pinkwater fan is always a sign that you are among good people." --Cory Doctorow, author of Little Brother Praise for Adventures of a Dwergish Girl "Captivating, cool and crazy! This story is an inspiration to us all: Be brave. Have adventures. And, most importantly, follow your dreams." --Sam Lloyd, author of Mr. Pusskins "Those who enjoy a good mystery with an unusual plot, strong characters, and smart language will find connections between this unbelievable story and the incredible adventures of real life." -- School Library Journal "Zany characters and a heroine with a taste for adventure fill the pages of this charming middle grade novel." --Alane Adams, author of the Legends of Orkney series "A Pinkwater whirlwind in all its glory." -- Booklist "Richly-drawn, quirky, and mysterious, Daniel Pinkwater''s Adventures of a Dwergish Girl pulls readers into a dazzling adventure." --Susan Vaught, author of Footer Davis Probably Is Crazy " Adventures of a Dwergish Girl by Daniel Pinkwater has that rare sense of wonder that makes you feel as if you have entered into a magical kingdom. --Joe R. Lansdale, author of Of Mice and Minestrone, Praise for Daniel Pinkwater "Daniel Pinkwater is so obviously the funniest writer of children's books that he should be made a Living National Treasure." -- Washington Post Book World "Pinkwater is the uniquest. And so are his books. Each uniquer than the last . . . A delight in oddness. A magic that's not like anyone else's." --Neil Gaiman, author of American Gods "Daniel Pinkwater helped to shape me as a storyteller and his books have delighted generations of young readers.

Dwerg life is not for Molly O'Malley who decides to "skedaddle" from their quaint village hidden in the woods to find excitement in the big city." --Alane Adams, author of the Legends of Orkney series "Molly is curious, practical, and resourceful, and despite her desire for independence, she remains connected to her Dwerg family and heritage. The comically absurd ending is an enjoyable wrap-up to this fast-paced, unexpected adventure that combines history, folklore, and nonsensical fun." -- Publishers Weekly "A Pinkwater whirlwind in all its glory." -- Booklist "Richly-drawn, quirky, and mysterious, Daniel Pinkwater's Adventures of a Dwergish Girl pulls readers into a dazzling adventure." --Susan Vaught, author of Footer Davis Probably Is Crazy " Adventures of a Dwergish Girl by Daniel Pinkwater has that rare sense of wonder that makes you feel as if you have entered into a magical kingdom. So few writers have this knack, and it appears to come effortlessly to Mr. Pinkwater. I was delighted to jump into one of his amazing worlds. --Joe R. Lansdale, author of Of Mice and Minestrone
