Oh, goodness gracious, Larry the Liar cannot catch a break. Just because he has told everyone that would listen that his dad is a secret agent and that big foot showers in the gym does not mean that there are not aliens in Malarkey Lake
“What could I say that’s stranger than the truth?”
As he runs off to tell the town, no one will believe, that is, until Carlig and Dreab – Olympic swimmers on their way to Hollywood for staring roles in Sci-Fi movies – investigate on their own.
Oh dear me, what will we do, when aliens are prevaricator too?
This is a very funny, engaging book. The characters are amusing, the storyline is unique and at the end, there is a translation key so you and your little reader can figure out what the aliens were trying to say.
