{"product_id":"9781533605337","title":"The Magic Pudding: Illustrated","description":"The adventures of those splendid fellows Bunyip Bluegum, Bill Barnacle and Sam Sawnoff, the penguin bold, and of course their amazing, everlasting and very cantankerous Puddin'.\u003cp\u003eThe story is about a group of friends, wild Australian anthropomorphised creatures. The two main characters are Bunyip Bluegum and his Uncle Wattleberry, both koalas, whose pomposity may make you laugh out loud. In fact Uncle Wattleberry performs a similar role to Owl, in the \"Winnie the Pooh\" stories, \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhillip Pullman says The Magic Pudding, Being the Adventures of Bunyip Bluegum and his friends Bill Barnacle and Sam Sawnoff is his favourite book. He maintains that it is, \"the funniest children's book ever written.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNew York Review of Books calls it, \"Wild and woolly, funny and outrageously fun.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt certainly is extremely silly and engaging, this Australian children's story, a classic from 1918. Written and illustrated by Norman Lindsay, it is partly a narrative, and partly in rhyming verse.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CreateSpace Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48729207832816,"sku":"9781533605337","price":5.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781533605337_p0.jpg?v=1768854623","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781533605337","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
