Rating: 4 / 5

This book is about
Kid Wonder finds out that Professor Von Klimpt has been kidnapped by The Slippery Shadow Gang. Professor Von Klimpt is a famous inventor and had been working on a special kind of toothpaste. Also a truth drug has gone missing. If the two are mixed, Kid Wonder thinks it will make a Truthpaste. The Truthpaste would make everyone that uses it tell the truth. Prince Pharong Pharong is coming to visit the country. He has a long nose and if people have used Truthpaste they might insult his nose and this could cause trouble. Kid Wonder finds The Slippery Shadow Gang and puts Truthpaste in their tea. While they are squabbling, Police Chief McGrabbem arrives and arrests them.

The main characters are
Kid Wonder, the Slippery Shadow Gang, Chief McGrabbem and Prince Pharong Pharong.

My favourite part of the book is
When Prince Pharong Pharong exits from the 'plane and Chief McGrabbem gives his speech.

I would also like to say
On page 23 there are pictures of types of noses and Prince Pharong Pharong has the Concorde Snout.

The Slippery Shadow Gang have escaped from prison. They make a Truthpaste, that when you clean your teeth with it, it makes you tell the truth. Kid Wonder has to try to stop this, so that when Prince Pharong visits he would not be insulted by people telling him that he has an enormous nose.

Kid Wonder

My favourite part of the book is
When Prince Pharong's nose appears from the aeroplane and you see the enormous nose.
