author: Douglas Anthony Cooper
description: Funny in a twisted way. . . . Engaging. -<i>The Magazine<br /></i><br />Magnificent. . . . Rapid-fire repartee, puns, and wordplay grace almost every page. . . . Anyone who reads [<b>Milrose Munce</b>] is guaranteed to laugh out loud. - <i>Books in Canada<br /></i><br />Absolutely flawless. A cunningly subversive young-adult novel from one of the only living writers of English who knows how to craft a sentence. - Joseph Suglia, author of <b>Watch Out</b><br /><br /><br /><i>From the Trade Paperback edition.</i>
