+ Want to read

Monty's world seems a little different this morning. For one thing, he can't help noticing his mother suddenly has three heads. And is serving liver flakes for breakfast. Then there are the unusual animals he encounters, who all seem to be talking and . . . wearing costumes? There's no way around it—Monty has definitely woken up on the wrong planet. The problem is, he has no idea how to get home. He needs advice. But from whom? The scatterbrained donkey? The no-nonsense ant? Or the old man on the mountaintop?
