Summary
"The Odditoreum contains a parade of curiosities large and small from deep within the vaults of the Powerhouse Museum. Award-winning author and illustrator Shaun Tan has created an intriguing story for each, blurring fact and fantasy, in a very potent and funny mix for readers of all ages. And he's left some pages blank, so you can write your own fanciful stories!"--Back cover.
