Whales on Stilts

200 pp. | Harcourt | April, 2005 | Trade ISBN 0-15-205340-9 $15.00
(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Kurt Cyrus. Lily Gefelty finds herself in the thick of the action when a visit to her dad's office convinces her that a stilt-walking army of whales is about to take over the world. This satire on the series book industry is populated with dense adults, resourceful kids, and a beguilingly impossible adversary. For series burnouts, the narrative gleefully revels in each cliché it exploits.
