The young narrator visits his friend Wilbur's house, a surreal dwelling full of strange inventions (e.g., a robot, a brain augmentor, an antigravity device) and even stranger relations. For this edition--and in anticipation of the movie version (Meet the Robinsons)--the quirky story is extended with four new spreads, introducing a few more oddball characters, and some design tweaks.
