Josh and Danny are on holiday with their parents in Cornwall - so the last person they expect to see is mad scientist, and next door neighbour, Petty Potts! So when the twins see her on the beach - holding a turtle under each arm - they can't help but wonder what she's up to. The thing is, the boys have got other things on their mind. They've found another mystery marble clue, and need to get out to the ruined fort on the rocky island. But they take too long and the tide comes in, trapping them.

Oh no! Mad scientist Petty Potts just turned up at Josh and Danny's Summer Camp, as the new camp counsellor. And she just happens to be hiding some bottles of extraordinary serum inside her raincoat... That can turn them into amphibians! Josh and Danny vow to stay away from Petty's SWITCH formula, but when their new friend Pippa gets into trouble, they know there’s only one thing for it.

How long will it be before the boys are boys again?

Petty's been kidnapped! Josh and Danny have already broken into her secret lab looking for her, and now they're going to brave all her anti-intruder traps and break into her house. There's no sign of Petty, but there is a very interesting little box…containing the best SWITCH spray ever.

Unable to resist the temptation, the twins head to the park to try out alligator SWITCH spray. But before they make it to the river, they're roped into being in the audience of a touring chat show, with some VERY interesting guests...

Reluctantly, the twins fight their way through hordes of excited girls dressed as fairies to the back of the shop, where a single door stands between them and Petty's new lab. SWITCH-ing into geckos, the boys have no problems getting under the door and up the walls. It's on the way out that things start to get really tricky.…
