Customer Review #1:
 I love this book, and not just because Im in it.
Daniel Pinkwater is such a great guy. He doesnt bother with the New York Times when he needs jacket quotes, he goes straight to his fans! These are some of the best books in the world, all here in one volume. Borgel changed my life. It says so on the inside cover so its true. Yobgorgle is a modern day Flying Dutchman. The Worms of Kukumlima comes complete with giant intelligent worms, and the second Snarkout book is poetry in motion. These books cannot be found in print individually anymore, so for a quadruple dose of funny freaky fantasy, 4 Fantastic Novels is your Rx.

anything better??? NEVER!
first i must say, there is nothing in this world as wonderful as Daniel Pinkwaters books. These were the first books of his i have ever read and i must say i was in sheer delight. While, I at first only bought them because the name Pinkwater was possibly the best id ever heard, I, now after reading them, would have bought them if his name was Joe Smith. And i must tell you i dont respond well to boring names, or anything for that matter, and pinkwater and his books are anything but boring. Giant Popsicles as a symbol for all thats good in the world, asian realitives of the adocovo, salami snaps, giant earthwarms thinking humans love gronala, giant pig submarines? who thinks of these things? obviously only Daniel Pinkwater. Hes just plain goofy. And its not in the slightest anoyying. Do i recommend this book? ABSOLUTLY! and the 9-12 thing, while just ignore that intirely because this book is for everybody!

Who needs Prozac?
If only all teens could read this book...there would be a whole lot less depressed teens in the world today! Like most teens, I have gone through depressing times in my life, but since I got this book, I certainly have had less of them! Just read "Borgel" and meet the great-great-great-great-grandfather you wish you had. Or open up to "The Snarkout Boys and the Baconburg Horror" and go to pieces as you read the escapade of the Snarkout Boys (one of whom is a girl) all through Baconburg and Hamfast. If you prefer classic literatur, then read "Yobgorgle," a wonderful mix of the Loch Ness Monster and "20,000 Leagues Under The Sea" and the legend of the Flying Dutchman. Seriously (not really, it is impossible to be serious where Pinkwater is concerned), this book can bring you out of depression in an instant. (Try some chocolate, too.) And as Stephanie said in her review, IGNORE THE AGE LIMIT! YOU ARE NEVER TOO OLD FOR PINKWATER!
