Garis employs a charming narrative style rich in descriptive language and whimsical dialogue, immersing readers into Umboo's world of wonder and mischief. The book aligns with early 20th-century children'Äôs literature, mirroring the fascination with anthropomorphic animals and exotic settings prevalent during the time, often blending moral lessons with enchanting storylines. Howard Roger Garis was an American author and journalist known for his contributions to children's literature, particularly during the early 1900s. His background in creating engaging stories for youthful audiences, along with his keen interest in natural history, shaped his writing style and thematic choices.

"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" by F. Scott Fitzgerald is a fantastical tale with some Poe-like overtones. It's about a baby born at age 70 who then lives life in reverse, with his hair turning from white to iron-gray over the dozen years of his life and the network of wrinkles on his face becoming less pronounced. The ramifications of this create fantastical situations in Benjamin's relationships with his father, his wife, and his son.
