Margate's Theatre Royal has been subjected to feelings of such extreme terror that people have openly admitted to soiling themselves. The whole camera crew filming Matthews' TV programme were witness to the ghostly cries of a baby echoing around its empty corridors. This book is filled with instances like these.

Opposites attract in this humorous graphic novel series about best friends, Gustav and Henri (short for Henrietta!). Meet Gustav and Henri. This is their book. 
It's a bit about friendship and a lot about snacks (especially Nachos!). 
They love doing normal things together, like: finding a lost shuttlecock – IN SPACE! returning an overdue library books – 100 YEARS AGO! 
or making cakes – IN THE BATH! You know, completely boring things.Join them for 100% of your recommended daily intake of adventure, escapades, and capers–all in one book!\nWith the visual appeal of Narwhal and Jelly, the irresistible humor of Dog Man and the value of Real Pigeons (with three stories in each volume), this is the perfect series for kids who enjoy comics, funny stories, and cartoons such as Phineas and Ferb. 
Each book contains 3 stories in 1, for maximum value, and maximum snacks!\nFrom School Library Journal\nK-Gr 4-Gustav and Henri are ready for adventure, and in the first volume of this new series, they have plenty. The book is separated into three slightly connected stories. In "Gustav, Space Pig," the pair construct a spaceship to retrieve a lost shuttlecock on the moon. Unfortunately the shuttlecock has been claimed by King Steve the Best, King of the Moon, and they have to figure out how to get it back and enjoy their game. Their second adventure, "Gustav, Time Pig," has the two of them going back in time to return a late library book and avoid having their library privileges "permanently double-canceled" by the cranky librarian, Cassandra. Finally, in "Detective Gustav and the Great Pig Day Mystery," Gustav must discover who among his party guests (King Steve, Cassandra, and a bewildered Robert Swan) stole the Pig Day cake he had made for Henri. This series is off to a fun start. The characters are well established right out of the gate and consistent throughout all three stories. Gustav is the impulsive one and Henri (actually short for Henrietta) is always there to get them out of trouble. Matthews makes the story fun and fast but never rushed. Despite a limited palette of blue, gray and black, Thomas's art is a fantastic complement to the story. Every page is creative and interesting to look at. VERDICT This will be a popular series for elementary and middle school age kids who love humor, science fiction and fun.-Erik Knappα(c) Copyright 2011.
