Is your greatest goal to be in The Guinness Book of World Records?Then join Arthur Whipple and his fantastic family of world record breakers as they engage in the greatest competition of their lives.'Echoes of Roald Dahl . . . A genuinely fun and comically ludicrous romp, clearly worthy of most world records outside of a world records book.' Publishers Weekly'There's humor and mayhem, and red herrings and nefarious suspects abound.'School Library Journal

About the author

Matthew Ward

Though Matthew Ward was crowned back-to-back School Spelling-Bee Champion in the third and fourth grades, his childhood passed with little international distinction. In 2006, he was named the World's First TiVo Ambassador. He lives in San Diego with his wife and their two sons. The Fantastic Family Whipple series is his debut.
