by Mark Tatulli

Overview

When we last saw Desmond Pucket, he was fresh from rescuing a bus full of monsters from the now defunct amusement park ride The Mountain Full of Monsters. But in all the chaos of the monster rescue, Desmond never stopped to think what he was going to do with all of these scary props. 

But if there's one thing Desmond always has, it's ideas for making monster magic! 

Join Desmond and his posse of pranksters as they create their greatest show yet: The Cloverfield Junior High Carnival of Horrors!

Editorial Reviews

Gr 4–6—Desmond Pucket is obsessed with monsters, movies, and all things scary. He's not looking forward to many things in his new year at school. The one thing keeping him motivated is the annual Cloverfield Junior High Carnival of Horrors, which will raise money for the school library on the chopping block due to budget cuts. However, a new principal has taken over and his first act is to cancel the Carnival of Horrors. Desmond and his friends dip into his bag of horror tricks to convince them to bring back the carnival and hopefully save the library. Relevant events from the two previous titles in the series are recapped although this volume of the series stands on its own. The comic book interludes and spot illustrations throughout will make this series appeal to those young readers who have already read Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Big Nate.
