Product Description A towering crisis interrupts the twins' usual mayhem: The mayor is about to build his monstrous Knightlorian Hotel right next door! But as they try to halt construction, Edgar and Ellen encounter a new foe -- an unknown prankster who's stealing their thunder (and their best schemes)! To stop the rash of copycat capers the twins must descend into the sewers, but what they discover there is stranger than anything they could have imagined. A mysterious journal, a secret laboratory, a villain's hideaway -- there's a lot more than sewage running beneath Nod's Limbs!

Looking for a town to live in? Don't come to Nod limbs! There is a new villain in town and it's going to be ugly! A battle under Town of Nod Limbs. Welcome to Edgar and Ellen Under Town by Charles Ogden; he is a fiction writer. This is the third book of the series.
This is a creepy book, but funny. A weird looking prankster that never stops smiling at Edgar and Ellen.
Do you know what a Venus fly trap is? Edgar and Ellen 'had' that plan but bigger then ever! Usually a plant stays in place, But the Venus fly trap eats flies.
Edgar and Ellen always have a reason for their atrocious plans. For example: The mayor is building a knightorian Hotel. This hotel is built in the Gadget Graveyard that is right next door of the twins' mansion.
They're so many weird things that are happening such as the lab, the Venus fly trap, and??????? as the Prankster when you think it's???????? as the ?????. Read this book to find out who the?????
Edgar & Ellen: Evil Pair February 7, 2006 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
"Edgar & Ellen Under Town" can keep you occupied for hours! These humorous twins scrape up more terror in a new book! This interesting book keeps you up for hours. Edgar and Ellen have more zany ideas than ever. For example, they make catapults and giant windmills. This book kept me up for a very long time. Also, this book uses more difficult vocabulary than the average kid's book. I know this because they use words such as "cacophony" and "shoddy." These words have improved my vocabulary. Another thing is that this book is very funny. This book resembles the show "Seinfeld" with all the cruelness and hatred done in a humorous way! I laughed out loud many times as I read. I recommend this book to people who like a barrel of fun!!!!
A good find in the insipid world of childrens' books November 20, 2004 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
I ran into this book and bought it on a whim based on the cover, even though I had not read the others in the series...
Not only is the art fantastic (although it really could use more pictures), but the story is surprisingly well writen, and the author did not assume that because his target audience is young, that they are also stupid. A refreshing story where the main characters are actually really bad, with no apparent conscience or ethical problems with any kind of wrongdoing. At one point, Ellen even says, "Stealing is WRONG, IMMORAL, only WE should get away with it."
Parents worried about children emulating the nefarious capers of this dynamic duo would do well to give children the benefit of the doubt and realize that unless there are other serious problems in the child's life, they are not going to emulate games like "Does Pet Bounce?"
All in all an enjoyable read.
