Publisher's note

"I'll swap you my dad," I said.
"Oh-oh," said my little sister.

What if you wanted your best friend's two goldfish so much that you'd swap anything for them, even your father?

What if your mother came home and found out what you'd done?

The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish is a hilarious adventure and was the first book for younger readers from the acclaimed author and illustrator of the New York Times best-sellers The Wolves in the Walls and Coraline. Chosen as one of Newsweek magazine's Best Children's Books of the Year, The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish is beloved by readers of all ages. This new edition features brand-new jacket art and an afterword by the author on the origins of this unique and wonderfully funny story.

CD included

Annotation

This uproariously funny picture book by Neil Gaiman, the creator of the popular SANDMAN comic book series and author of the novels NEVERWHERE and AMERICAN GODS, draws its audience from his immense adult fan base as well as from children new to his work. The nameless narrator covets his friend Nathan's goldfish, and offers to trade his dad for them. Once his mother discovers the exchange, however, she orders her son and his younger sister to reverse the transaction. Unfortunately, Nathan has already traded the boy's dad for an electric guitar, and the guitar's previous owner has traded him for a gorilla mask, and....The scratchy, collage-like illustrations are by Dave McKean, a frequent collaborator with Gaiman on comic books and graphic novels.

This edition features a new cover, a new afterword by author Neil Gaiman, and a CD with a screensaver and an unabridged recording of the story read by Gaiman.
