From the Publisher:
Horton, an upstanding kitchen boy in a castle in nineteenth-century England, becomes embroiled in a mystery surrounding a series of thefts, which is also connected to the pursuit of a very eligible and wealthy young lady's affections. |
Annotation:
Preposterous in the best sense of the word, and taking after the likes of Lemony Snicket, this middle grade mystery involves the world's most hideous diamond, Shipless Pirates, and a befuddled kitchenboy stuck in the middle. Horton Halfpott does his best to stay out of the way at Smugwick Manor, but when M'Lady Luggertuck decides to loosen her corset, the entire household is drawn into mayhem. "The Loosening" eventually causes the disappearance of the Luggertuck Lump, and fingers are pointed at Horton. Does he have what it takes to find out the truth? With black-and-white line drawings. Tom Angleberger is the author of THE STRANGE CASE OF ORIGAMI YODA.
