How did you come up with the idea for Doctor Copter? How did you come up with the idea for Crackerdile? The books are very cool and funny. Oliver

Thanks, Oliver. Doctor Copter's original can basically be traced back to my love of Transformers as a kid. His origin is also a parody of the movie An American Werewolf in London.
The idea for Crackerdile originally began as a picture book, about a crocodile animal cracker that fell between some couch cushions and then went on an adventure, but I never made the story, so when I needed to come up with villain for Mango and Brash, I remembered the name, and figured that would make a fun character.

We have listened to the audiobook of Investigators 1 and 2 so many times. We really love all of the extra dialogue that was added to point out details that would be missed due to the inherent lack of visuals. Are there plans to record more of the books in this style?
