Description

The third hilarious adventure for Charlie McGuffin, the boy who changes into animals when he gets nervous.

Charlie McGuffin is an actual superhero. He’s gained control over his wacky ability to change into animals – he’s even able to use it to turn the tables on school bully Dylan.

But there are some things Charlie can’t control, like the arguments his parents keep having (which are making him more worried than ever) or the mysterious animal disappearances spreading through town (which might be connected to Charlie himself).

Can Charlie unravel the mystery of the pet-nappings before his biggest secret is revealed to the world…?
