Luckily, Hugo P. Sprouts is a mad scientist and determined to find a solution...</strong></p><p>In his lab, Hugo develops a potion and finally becomes the biggest kid in town--but also the biggest jerk around. Hugo has great power, but will he learn responsibility before it's too late? </p><p>John Loren's rhyming, invention-gone-wrong picture book is a silly, fun read-aloud full of heart. This madcap tale of a whiz-kid was partly inspired by the struggle of good and evil in Stevenson's classic <em>Jekyll and Hyde</em>, with a little scoop of Godzilla for good measure.</p><p><em>Hugo Sprouts and the Strange Case of the Beans </em>is a celebration of curiosity and ingenuity that fans of<em> </em>Andrea Beaty's <em>Rosie Revere, Engineer</em><em> </em>and Chris Van Dusen's<em> If I Built a Car </em>will love.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Loren's ear for cadence is utterly divine [and] it's the art that really pops off the page. Fans of classic Looney Tunes may see many visual callbacks while the plot and rhymes harken back to old-school Dr. Seuss. Fast, furious, and funny, this book is one to grow on.--<em>Kirkus Reviews</em><br>
