Description:
Ben Warner is dizzy with boredom, working for the summer in Cod Almighty, his local fish and chip shop, when one evening a sexy young woman called Lila arrives with a bizarre invitation. Ben is tempted, but suspicious - and with good reason. Lila wants him to visit her in the World of Ideas - a place he's never heard of - and, though Ben doesn't yet know it, Lila has been dead for thirty years (which at least explains the purple flares).
Lila has a mission. Her boss, Socrates (President of the World of Ideas) has made a bet with his arch-rival Wittgenstein. To win the bet (and keep their jobs) he and Lila must prove to Ben that philosophy can change his life for the better.
As Ben finds his way in to this dreamlike sector of the afterlife with its disconcerting worlds-within-worlds, he has no idea he's the subject of a bet. And so begins a mind-bending guided tour around the big, and the small, questions in life. Does time speed up when your heart beats faster? When is orange not orange? Do we have free will? Little by little, Ben starts to ask his own questions and to believe that - apart from football - the unexamined life is not really worth living.

Bought this for y 2 year old nephew who loves Cars. We needed an alternative to a tablet or phone for outings. He loves this book, bright fun pictures, durable for a toddler, and great sounds.

Good, cute talking book. Good audio
Format: Board book
This little book has pretty good audio and has lasted quite awhile. The story is cute, my little dude liked it, and it was well made. Thick board book so it's perfect for little hands.
(Amazon VIne people, please accept me into your ranks. I know this review wasn't as good, but IDK what else to really write, I got this for my nephew for Easter I think two years ago and it was destroyed after awhile intentionally. I don't have the greatest memory of it, but we kept the speaker part after because he liked it before we finally just got rid of it while cleaning...sorry lil dude if you ever come across this review, I'll get you a new one if you're that passionate about it)

Great for small kids
Format: Board book
Love this book. Easy for the kids to turn the cardboard pages, and the sound buttons are easy to push. Bought for my 2 year old grandson’s birthday, but 3 year old cousin keeps trying to steal it.
