Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Readers will enjoy Angleberger’s penchant for the absurd as well as his many droll asides. With Angleberger’s many eclectic characters, his wild-and-witty storytelling, and a lighthearted but perplexing mystery—involving a ‘lump’ of diamonds, a couple of wigs, and a bust of Napoleon—readers are in for a treat.” —Publishers Weekly
“From the author of The Strange Case of Origami Yoda, here’s an amusing romp of a mystery that balances skulduggery with just rewards.” —Booklist
“Much like Dickens or Dahl, an opinionated narrator with a strong sense of the ridiculous directs this story.” —School Library Journal
“A positively gleeful historical mystery farce. Short chapters, a fast pace and plenty of linguistic and slapstistic humor will have young readers hoping that a sequel is planned…A romp from start to finish.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Exaggerated black-and-white drawings emphasize the often wacky humor in this goofy faux-British mystery. Sprawling, outlandish tale.” —Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
