1-3Stepping Stone series.
Illustrated by
Scott Altmann.
Magician Mr. Cigam assigns nine-year-old cousins Henry and Keats a new job: rid the local supermarket of giant slugs before the store is named a hazard zone and shut down. Delightfully, there's no logic in the absurd, slapstick messiness that ensues as the boys chase slimy critters and trash the store. Chapter book readers into yucky humor will gobble this up.
