Storyline

The world described in this tale is not at all like our world. The dungeons are gloomier, the rich and their sons meaner, the parents much more selv-centred, the crazy inventors' inventions crazier. And the beast that lives in the sewer system, brooding on revenge, could easily be a giant anaconda. 

In this world, the friendship between two lonely children is perhaps even more important than it is in our world.

Doctor Proctor's Fart Powder is the story about two lonely (and a bit weird) children, that finds friendship, by helping Doctor Proctor to get his recognition.  

When eleven-year-old Nilly moves to his new neighborhood in Oslo, Norway, he meets his neighbor, Doctor Proctor, an eccentric professor who invents wacky potions and powders; including an industrial strength fart powder that can send people to outer space. Doctor Proctor, Nilly, and his new friend Lisa must go to great lengths to protect the invention and keep it out of the hands of their neighbors, who try to use the powder for evil purposes.
