* AlternateAesopInterpretation: The intended moral of the poem about Goldie Pinklesweet is "don't be dumb and eat medicines you're not supposed to", but for parents it can also be "don't leave young children unsupervised assuming they won't get into trouble". Goldie wouldn't have gotten into the laxatives if her grandma hadn't left her in the house alone so she could go into town and buy a double gin.

* ContestedSequel: On [[{{Sequelitis}} one hand]], the first half is padded, but at least tries something new; the second half is a retread of the misadventures of the naughty kids from the first book. On [[SurprisinglyImprovedSequel another hand]], the book is far more humorous than its predecessor.

* [[SpiritualSuccessor Spiritual Predecessor]]: The book can be sees as a kids version of Franchise/TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy as they both are about a exentric man who takes the main character to different places in space and describe different things in space.
