Whales on Stilts (M.T. Anderson's Thrilling Tales)

by M . T . Anderson (Author), KurtCyrus (Illustrator)

Synopsis

What sort of madman would unleash an army of stilt-walking, laser-beaming, thoroughly angry whales upon the world? Who cares! All that matters is that his dastardly plan be foiled. Lucky for Lily Gefelty, her two best friends are the intrepid stars of their own middle-grade series novels: Jasper Dash (better know as the Boy Technonaut) and Katie Mulligan (beloved by millions as the heroine of the Horror Hollow series). It's going to take all their ingenuity to stop this insane, inane plot from succeeding.

Media Reviews
Readers . . . will be rolling in the aisles. --Booklist (starred review)

Armed with an array of adjectives, non-sequiturs, bizzare asides, irrelevant footnotes, and running gags, Anderson sends up decades of children's book series, and creates a hysterical tale of his own . . . Highly accessible. --Publishers Weekly (starred review)


a hysterical tale...Highly wacky
