    Delivering belly laughs and heart-stopping action in equal measure, this third installment of the Mabel Jones saga is an excellent family read-aloud.

    Trapped in the Noo World, Mabel Jones is determined to make the most of her time in this strange future run by animals. Her next mission: find the Doomsday Book, a guidebook used to wipe out humanity. If Mabel learns what happened to her species, there's a chance she can prevent its extinction. But an elusive creature known as Von Klaar is also after the book . . . can Mabel find it before it lands in the wrong hands? 

    Join Mabel and her crewmates as they race Von Klaar to the sacred city of Otom. Hoomankind depends on it!

    PRAISE FOR MABEL JONES:

    "Endlessly funny and gleefully gross... this series reaches new heights of looniness...Top-notch, cutthroat, silly, strange stuff."
    --Kirkus Reviews, Mabel Jones and the Doomsday Book

    "Mabel Jones is the ultimate in high adventure for readers who desire a fast paced, down and dirty, hold on-to-your-hat plot that grabs readers within the first chapter."
    --School Library Connection, STARRED REVIEW, Mabel Jones and the Forbbiden City 

    "First in a series, this comical novel should become a readaloud favorite." 
    --Publishers Weekly, STARRED REVIEW, The Unlikely Adventures of Mabel Jones 

    "A uniquely wild and witty ride. If Lewis Carroll were writing for Monty Python, I imagine it might look something like this."
    --Christopher Healy, author of the Hero's Guide series

    "A speedy, splashy, snort-out-loud lark . . . Clever and fun."
    --Jacqueline West, author of the New York Times bestselling Books of Elsewhere series

    "Delightfully nasty, bonkers piratical fun. I laughed out loud!"
    --Robin Stevens, author of Murder Is Bad Manners
