The Exquisite Corpse Adventure was a project by Jon Scieszka, the National Ambassador for Young Peoples Literature in 2008-2009. Multiple authors each wrote a separate episode. It all begins with a train rushing through the night. On board, twins Joe and Nancy begin a quest to rescue their parents. Along the way, they will encounter mad scientists, a talking pig, creatures from another dimension, several bad knock-knock jokes, plenty of explosions, a whole army of villains and varmints, and shape-shifting Eggy-Things. Multiple authors. Paperback; 276 pages.
