    About this series

    When Danny's soccer practice is canceled, he's forced to go with his brother, Josh, to a meeting for a wildlife and nature group. But a fluke encounter with a muffin turns both brothers into beetles just in time to learn all about pond-dipping...from the bug's perspective! Can Danny and Josh avoid becoming part of an insect collection? And where in the world is that horrible smell coming from?

      Danny and Josh are trying their best to stay away from Petty Potts. They don't want anything to do with her crazy top-secret experiments, and they certainly don't want to get turned into bugs again! But when their mom's garden is ruined the day before the big neighborhood competition, the twins turn into bluebottle houseflies to take matters into their own two hands...or rather, into their six legs. Can they act like flies on the wall and find the culprits before it's too late?

      All Josh and Danny Phillips want to do is play in the yard with their dog, like regular eight-year-olds. Unfortunately, their crazy neighbor Miss Potts makes sure that they never have any fun. When the boys accidentally stumble on Miss Potts's secret—that she is working on experiments that change people into bugs—they find themselves in a whole lot of trouble. (They also find themselves with six more legs than normal.) Can the boys survive in the world as spiders? And more important, will they figure out how to change back into humans in time for dinner?

      Danny and Josh thought that today would be just like any other school day—wake up, eat breakfast, and go to school. Of course, they didn't expect to accidentally turn into grasshoppers in the middle of class! Can they avoid being eaten while they search for the antidote? Will they be able to change back before getting a week of detention? And will they find time to eat those delicious-looking leaves?

      When Petty Potts leaves town, she puts Danny and Josh in charge of some of her special S.W.I.T.C.H. spray. But leave it up to the nutty scientist to put S.W.I.T.C.H. spray in a bottle identical to their sister Jenny's hairspray. When Danny and Josh's big, annoying sister transforms into a little, annoying crane fly, it's up to the two of them to keep Jenny from being eaten alive. But that would be much easier to do if their own legs would stop falling off!

      Danny and Josh were having a great day until Tarquin, the most annoying boy in the neighborhood, came over to play. He dresses like he's 55, doesn't do anything fun, and pulls the legs off of bugs. The twins thought that their day couldn't get any worse, but when they turn into ants by accident, they realize how wrong they were! Can Danny and Josh find a safe place to hide until they turn human again? And with Tarquin in the garden, will they make it out with all of their legs?
