Både för att avslöja hans hemliga förmåga OCH för hålla honom ansvarig för de försvunna djuren. Som om det inte vore nog är det jobbigt hemma, Charlies föräldrar bråkar hela tiden och ska skiljas. Ledsamheten och oron för framtiden gör att förvandlingar tilltar. Dessutom vill Charlie bjuda Flora på skoldansen, men dansen verkar bli hans fall. Det är då någon tänker avslöja honom som skurk och berätta hans hemlighet för alla. Går det att rida ut den här stormen? Det är mycket uppsluppet, rak och tydlig handling.

Hullunhauskan kirjasarjan ensimmäinen osa Pikku Outokodon alakoulun oudoista sattumuksista.Vakooja-etsivät Agatha Tuppi ja Lenny Takku joutuvat hurjien käänteiden keskelle.Kaikenlaista outoa tapahtuu Pikku Outokodon kaupungin alakoulussa. Kummalliset puhurit iskevät kouluun ja oppilaat ja opettajat käyttäytyvät pähkähullusti, alkavat tanssia kesken tuntia ja unohtavat täysin tehneensä niin hetken päästä.Vakooja-etsivä Agatha Tuppi, 9 vuotta, päättää selvittää asian. Hän on ainoa, joka ei unohda outoja sattumuksia kun ne ovat ohi. Tai melkein ainoa, sillä uusi luokkatoveri Lenny Takku muistaa myös tapahtumat.Etsiväpari Agatha ja Lenny löytävät ikivanhan Kaaoksen kirjan, joka on piilotettu Kiellettyjen ja vaarallisten kirjojen huoneeseen. Mutta pystyvätkö he päihittämään pahat alushousut ja transsylvanialaiset hirviöt? Onnistuvatko he pysäyttämään puhurit ennen kuin heidän pieni kaupunkinsa vaipuu unholaan? Voima piilee kirjoissa, erityisesti tässä yhdessä... Avaa minut! Käännä sivua!Sam Copeland on kotoisin Manchesterista. Nykyään hän asuu Lontoossa vaimonsa, kolmen lapsensa ja kahden kissansa kanssa. Hän on työskennellyt mm. kanakuiskaajana ja mammuttien trimmaajana. Hänen aikaisempia lastenromaanejaan ovat mm. Sami muuttuu kanaksi, Sami muuttuu hirmuliskoksi ja Sami muuttuu mammutiksi. Sam Copeland ei aio lopettaa kirjoittamista, huolimatta lakimiesten uhkailuista...www.sam-copeland.com@stubbleagentJenny Pearson, Maailman paras opettaja, on palkittu kuudella mukilla, yhdellä jääkaappimagneetilla, seinälaatalla ja usealla onnittelukortilla. Kun hän ei ole inspiroimassa oppilaitaan koulussa, hän rentoutuisi mielellään kahden poikansa kanssa, mutta se ei ole mahdollista, sillä pojat pitävät häntä elävänä kiipeilyseinänä. Jenny Pearsonin aikaisempia lastenromaaneja ovat mm. Freddien superihmeellinen seikkailu ja Uskomattomat ennätystenrikkojat.www.jennypearsonauthor.com@J_C_Pearson
Hulvaton etsiväpari jälleen kiperän arvoituksen kimpussa.Uusi lukuvuosi Pikku Outokodon koulussa alkaa, mutta omituinen meno jatkuu!Agatha Tuppi ja Lenny Takku palaavat kouluun kesän jälkeen ja huomaavat pian, että jotain kummallista on jälleen tekeillä. Oppitunteja vahtivat laserkatseiset robottipöllöt, ja tuntien aikana oppilaiden on poljettava vimmatusti kuntopyörää. Kun vielä luokkakaveri Ernie muuttuu neroksi yhdessä yössä ja koulun kellarissakin tapahtuu jotain outoa, on etsiväparin ryhdyttävä tutkimuksiin.Vakooja-etsivät Agatha Tuppi ja Lenny Takku arvelevat, että kaiken takana on koulun uudistuksia ajanut Pamela Piukkaperä ja hänen kiero firmansa Minerva. Mutta ehtiikö etsiväpari selvittää arvoituksen ennen kuin on liian myöhäistä?Sam Copeland on kotoisin Manchesterista. Nykyään hän asuu Lontoossa vaimonsa, kolmen lapsensa ja kahden kissansa kanssa.
