This story is about three animals:

1. Gizmo, who wants to take over the world

2. Wedgie, who loves rolling in bad-smelling things

3. Toof, called so because of his tooth

Title: Wedgie & Gizmo vs. the Toof (Book 2 in the series Wedgie & Gizmo)

Author: Suzanne Selfors

Illustration: Barbara Fisinger

Publisher: Katherine Tegen Books  

Wedgie is a Corgi who lives with Mom, Abuela, Jasmine, and Jackson. When he wears a cape that Jasmine gave him, he becomes "Super Wedgie". His cape gives him superpowers! Gizmo is a guinea pig who lives with Dad and Elliott. Gizmo is an evil genius. He has taught himself to read, and he builds evil lairs.

Gizmo is sure that he needs the "Drone of Destiny" for himself and acquires it by ordering it on the internet. However, Gizmo knows that Wedgie (the Corgi in Thor cape) would try his best to stop him. Now Wedgie has a new friend to support him - Pinkie the Pig, aka Toof! Wedgie loves his new friend Pinkie so much. Wedgie wants Jasmine to be happy always. The easiest way to make Jasmine happy is to win the Pet Parade event at her school. Jasmine is jealous of Elliott winning trophies all the time.

But, will Wedgies and Gizmo help Jasmine win her dream trophy? 

Perfect read-aloud for little kids and toddlers. This book is also a wonderful read for elementary-age kids too.

Illustrations are adorable, and they don't overpower the storyline or text.
