Until Elliot and Leslie are invited to take a glimpse inside. They find stooped, troll-like creatures with jutting jaws and broken teeth. Tiny winged things that sparkle as they fly. And huge, hulking, hairy nonhumans (with horns). It is unlike anything they’ve ever seen. But when Chuck Brickweather threatens to shut down the DENKi-3000 factory if a new product isn’t presented soon, the creatures know they are in danger. And when Uncle Archie vanishes, it’s up to Elliot, Leslie, and every one of the unusual, er, “employees” to create an invention so astonishing it will save the Creature Department.

ReplyDeleteThe Creature Department was a funny, silly and charming book so i give it a 8/10. My favourite creature would be either Gugor because of his explanation of everything or Reggie because he kind of reminds me of my dog. I liked all the bizarre things going on at DENKI 3000 like the essences, the useful but bizarre inventions (wireless breath-mints?) and the rickem-rukem room. I think the Creature Department is for anyone that wants a bizarre, but funny book.

ReplyDeleteI thought that the Creature Department was a hilarious, interesting and very exciting book! One of my favourite aspects of the book was the way they had to make the inventions; I thought that it was very original that they needed to use some feelings contained in a bottle to make some inventions. In my opinion I thought the main characters Elliot and Leslie were very interesting and it is kind of weird how they met. I won't reveal too much... I think I would give this book 9 out of 10!
