Publisher Description

It all begins with a train rushing through the night. On board, twins Joe and Nancy begin a quest to rescue their parents. Along the way, they will encounter mad scientists, a talking pig, creatures from another dimension, several bad knock-knock jokes, plenty of explosions, a whole army of villains and varmints, and shape-shifting Eggy-Things. Figuring out who is friend and who is foe is the least of the twins’ problems as they piece together the body parts of a Top-Secret Robot who, when complete, will help to reunite their family.

A collaboration between the National Children’s Book and Literacy Alliance and the Library of Congress’s Center for the Book, the hilarious Exquisite Corpse Adventure originated as a national literacy project for young people to help launch the READ.gov website.

"The narrator does an excellent performance with this fun title. Another one where you have to pay attention or you won't know what the heck happened."

    " The story started off a little rocky, but it pulled together. I most enjoyed the way each author carried on with the plot in their own unique voice. "

    " Quite silly. Jon Scieszka's opening chapter is too much! The others that followed did a great job picking up all the pieces tossed out there by him. However, my favorite chapters were written by Lemony Snicket. "

About the Authors

Hans Christian Andersen (1805–1875) was born in Odense, Denmark, the son of a poor shoemaker and a washerwoman. As a young teenager, he became quite well known in Odense as a reciter of drama and as a singer. When he was fourteen, he set off for the capital, Copenhagen, determined to become a national success on the stage. He failed miserably, but made some influential friends in the capital who got him into school to remedy his lack of proper education. In 1829 his first book was published. After that, books came out at regular intervals. His stories began to be translated into English as early as 1846. Since then, numerous editions, and more recently Hollywood songs and Disney cartoons, have helped to ensure the continuing popularity of the stories in the English-speaking world.
