There's trouble afoot in Dennis Goldberg's latest adventure caper, Double Bubble Trouble and it's up to siblings Allison and Todd to bring order back to the magical land of Chicle before it's too late. Allison and Todd get more than they bargained for when they accept a piece of rainbow-colored gum from a mysterious clown at a local fair.
