Rufous Underpants is my secret superspy character.
Thrill to all of Agent Underpants’ exploits in exciting novels such as “Rufous Underpants and the Rogue Soft-Serv Cartel”, “A Reddish-Brown Contingency”, and of course the Boombatz Committee-Award Winning, “Rufous: A Hoot at Midnight”
You are always so creative! 😄
