How is it that this book has eluded me all my life? It should be in every library in the world. Yes, a worthy choice for 1001 Children's Books You Must Read.
Professor Branestawm (his last name, I learned, is a homophone of the word “brainstorm”) is a classic absent-minded professor. The professor spends his days creating amazing inventions like a Spring-Cleaning Machine and an Elixir of Vitality and a Clock-That-Doesn't-Need-Winding, always accompanied by his patient housekeeper Mrs. Flittersnoop and his loyal friend Colonel Dedshot.
I can see movie makers eating this movie up.
