Andrew lost in the garbage

Andrew Lost #13: In the Garbage (A Stepping Stone Book(TM))

Hello! My name is Andrew. I am an inventor but my inventions always get me in trouble. I love to invent things like my uncle Al. My uncle Al is a top secret scientist. I love inventing stuff with uncle Al. I even have a thirteen year old cousin named Judy. She is annoyed with me because I got her into trouble by getting her snuffled into a dogs nose, pooped out of a Whale and had her pajamas chewed by a Tyrannosaurus Rex! Thudd is an invention of uncle Al. He has saved Judy and me many times. He is my best friend during my adventures. He has saved Judy and me from the exploding Sun, a giant Squid and a monster asteroid. Will he be able to save us from garbage? The Goa constrictor is my latest invention. Goa means garbage goes away. I invented this so that the environment stays clean from the garbage but the Goa constrictor shrinks the garbage then it cleans it it can even shrink us! This time we are  shrunk by the Goa constrictor! We are thrown in the garbage which is ruled by thousands of insects and worms like dung beetles, blowflies, centipedes, bombardier beetles and wolf spiders! I was almost gobbled up by an earthworm! Did you know that people even study garbage. Those people who study garbage are called Garbologists. Do you know how I ended up into the Goa constrictor's mouth? I will tell you how I ended up into the Goa constrictor's mouth. Germy Booger asked me to catch his excuse-o-matic but I missed and it knocked the remote to control the Goa constrictor and it fell into my invention's mouth! I had to get it out otherwise he would complain that I stole his invention!
When I was taking it out the Goa constrictor gave a hiss and then it gobbled both of us up because Judy was clutching my ankles and yelling! Did you know that Thudd stands for The Handy Ultra-Digital Detective. Judy is so angry that Andrew shrunk Judy again! Jeremy Bogart is my classmate he wants to win in the young inventors contest. I will to tell you what did Jeremy Bogart invent he invented an excuse-o-matic. An excuse-o-matic is something which lets you escape from anything like if you did not do your homework etc. People call Jeremy Bogart Germy Booger because he loves troubling people. Wasn't my adventure dangerous? Hope you liked it.
