4-6Lionboy series.
Imprisoned in a mansion in Venice, Charlie and his lion friends don't experience as many wild escapades as in the first book in the series, but Charlie does manage to figure out the mystery behind his scientist parents' kidnapping. Written by an adult-child team, the story catapults the reader through a zany plot driven by outrageous characters.
