In The Case of the Flying Toenails, Secret Agent Dingledorf
discovers that one little lie can lead to disaster.
He learns that lying "is as much fun as eating cream
of spinach soup in the middle of a math test while you've got
the chickenpox!"
Secret Agent Dingledorf's imagination soars, as he sees and
hears things that other people miss. When his trusty dog Splat
starts "raining doggie drool," Dingledorf consults
his secret agent wristwatch, which is flashing a warning:
WARNING: PRESS ONLY IF YOU ARE BEING COVERED IN DOGGIE DROOL.
He presses and Splat's toenails become rocket-propelled.
Well, you get the picture. (Now read the book.)
