📖 Doctor Proctor's Fart Powder

It's May in Norway, and Lisa is living in a fort because her father is a Commandant. Lisa is lonely since her friend moved away to Sarpsborg—until a new neighbor arrives and changes her life. When Lisa goes to see the new arrival, she meets a little person who was supposed to be named William, but that name is too long, so they call him Nilly. As Nilly tries to make friends, he meets Doctor Proctor, an eccentric inventor. One of his crazy inventions is Fart Powder. Soon Lisa befriends Doctor Proctor and helps him sell this bizarre product to the school, which makes her popular. But when the school bully gets hold of the Fart Powder and uses it, chaos ensues. Before long, Nilly and Doctor Proctor get arrested. Nilly escapes through the sewers and encounters a snake. Meanwhile, the school bully and his father plan to sell the Fart Powder to NASA to make millions. Will Lisa, Doctor Proctor, and Nilly be able to save the day—and the farts—and become famous? Or will everything end in a "fartastic" disaster? I chose this book because it's so entertaining, and it shows how wacky inventions can be used for good.
