Fake Mustache Or, How Jodie O’Rodeo and Her Wonder Horse (and Some Nerdy Kid) Saved the U.S. Presidential Election from a Mad Genius Criminal Mastermind
by Tom Angleberger (Author)
Booktalk: Regular kid Lenny Flem Jr. is the only one standing between his evil-genius best friend—Casper, a master of disguise and hypnosis—and world domination. It all begins when Casper spends money from his granny on a spectacularly convincing fake mustache, the Heidelberg Handlebar #7. With it he’s able rob banks, amass a vast fortune, and run for president. Is Lenny the only one who can see through his disguise?
Snippet: I was getting used to being Jodie O’Rodeo. The surprising thing was that nobody seemed surprised to see a hot-pink cowgirl on the trolley. Maybe they’d seen more cowgirls on the trolley than you’d think or maybe they were half hypnotized. It’s a long ride all the way across Hairsprinkle to Winston’s.
