And will he be able to stop Casper from taking over the world?Praise for Fake Mustache?There?s no twist too goofy or absurd as Angleberger pulls out all the stops for this unabashedly silly story.??Publishers Weekly"Angleberger?s foot-on-the-floor zaniness helps pull it off, fueled by a steady stream of gags and utter ridiculousness that make Saturday-morning cartoons seem reasonable in comparison.
