Bizarre little book

I seem to be on a Neil Gaiman, bizarre book trend.  I just finished Fortunately, the Milk, a tale that begins innocuously enough, with a morning trip to the store for milk.  Take a look at the cover, and you can see that it goes seriously off-track

Our intrepid hero manages to save the milk through some fantastic events, as related to his children, demanding to know what took so long.  It begins with alien abduction.  Fortunately, he, and the milk, escape, and while plummeting to certain death lands in the sea, only to be captured by pirates.  He (and the milk) talks his way off the pirate ship, where he is rescued by a time-traveling stegosaurus, flying in a "floaty-ball-person-carrier."  His fantastic tale is met with scepticism by his kids as the tale grows wilder.  There are piranhas, volcanoes, pink ponies, and, fortunately, the milk.  The illustrations of Skottie Young only add to the joy of the journey.  It's a wild ride!
