"There's a laugh on every page, no, every sentence. It makes your head spin. And we all know how painful that can be. I loved it." ―Dan Gutman, bestselling author of the My Weird School and My Weirder School series

"If you want to read a roller coaster ride of a book filled with humor, mystery, international espionage, meatloaf, and a miniature hyena, then you absolutely MUST read The Day The Mustache Took Over. This is Alan Katz's brilliant brand of comedy at its best." ―Nick Bruel, bestselling author of the Bad Kitty books

"I laughed my head off. Which reminds me: has anyone seen my head?" ―Tommy Greenwald, author of the Charlie Joe Jackson series

"Stuffed with rapid-fire comedy, Alan Katz’s uproarious new novel will twist your brain until you scream. If The Cat in the Hat and Mary Poppins had a child, this crazy book would be it!" ―Tony Abbott, author of GOOFBALLS and THE POSTCARD

“The humor in the book will certainly appeal to fans of Jeff Kinney's Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Lincoln Peirce'sBig Nate, and Easler's illustrations add to the hilarity. . . The story is a delightful experience.” ―School Library Journal

"Much random silliness and outlandish mischief will appeal to young readers. Simple language, readable sentences, and satisfyingly predictable twists offer an easy read for reluctant readers. Move over, Mary Poppins." ―School Library Connection

“Nearly every line of the story is topsy-turvy, turning normalcy on its head, and Easler's b&w illustrations confirm it. This nonsensical, entertaining tale brings humor and fun to new heights.” ―Publishers Weekly

“The line drawings of innocent-looking lads and frazzled adults add further comical notes to this mischievous riff on the Travers classic.” ―Booklist
