Williamson Day

The Pretorius Stories Williamson Day

Dr. Pretorius, a teenager born with brains throughout his body, leapfrogs through school until he overdoses on yogurt and turns mad scientist. He and his pet crow, Bradshaw, set out in a fumbling attempt to conquer the world, hunting the Ugh!, searching for aliens, building a supercar, making Purple Truth Serum, infecting the world with bread mold and trying their hand at cloning. Bent on mischief, their adventures take them to South America, New York, Chicago, Detroit and Washington. Whimsy and excitement color each chapter. Illustrations are by Jon Buechel, Illustrator of Whoop for Joy, Laddie of the Light, and Llama on the Lam.
