INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Nesbø, Jo

Bubble in the Bathtub

(3) 4-6 Doctor Proctor's Fart Powder series. Translated by Tara Chase. Illustrated by Mike Lowery. A secret message on a postcard sends young Nilly and Lisa from Norway to Paris to save Doctor Proctor and reunite him with his long-lost love. There's a time-traveling bathtub involved, and Napoleon, Joan of Arc, and Gustave Eiffel all make appearances as the kids save the doctor from evil Claude Cliché. Nesbø's absurd action and nimble nonsense are thoroughly entertaining.
