Review:
To say that Baloney is extraordinarily different would be a gross understatement. To begin with, Baloney wasn't written: it was received and decoded by John Scieszka and cisual recreation was undertaken by Lane Smith.
About the Author:
Henry P Baloney, the Alien, is late for school and when asked by his teacher, Miss Bugscuffle, for an explanation, he proceeds to give an account which includes losing his "Zimulis", an encounter with a "Razzo" and saving himself from a "Zerplatzen", all over the "Speelplaat". However, Miss Bugscuffle is not convinced, and sets Henry to write a tall story! The text, mainly in capital letters, needs a decoder in places, found on the last page. Decode the signals and discover words from different earth languages, including Latvian, Swahili, Finnish, Esperanto and Inuktitut, among others. This excellent book will certainly fire the imaginations of children aged seven and older, and probably older people experiencing their second childhood too! --Susan Naylor
