But there is a new mind boggler to solve - who is the mysterious, dark figure nicking knickers off washing lines, scaring cinema-goers and generally causing the townsfolk's legs to go all wibbly wobbly? Smarts and sidekick Dewdrop are hot on the trail.For adults, teens and kids aged 10 up.Book 1 in the series is called Day of the Living Pizza."A delightfully humoured filled tale. Smarts & Dewdrop will persevere until they get to the bottom of the situation - and please readers with a happy ending (if those readers can stop laughing long enough, that is)" - Mallory Anne-Marie Haws."The book is written for young people with some good lessons on friendship intertwined throughout the story, but overall it is just a fun story for readers of any age" - Lady Wings."The setting for this story is Crazy Name Town, where every character has a name that made me chuckle while reading all about a shadow that didn't seem to be attached to a person. There were pleasant surprises throughout, including the ending" - PDX Author.
