Tom the Vam-Wolf-Zom is back--and so is the werewolf that bit him--in this monstrously funny series about a boy who's dying to fit in.

Eleven-year-old Tom was bit by a vampire, a werewolf, and a zombie right before the first day of middle school.

It was a weird and crazy day.

And he didn't even get excused from sixth grade! Now he's being hunted down by the werewolf that bit him.

Should Tom join a wolf pack? On the one hand, he could give up school and homework forever.

(He really doesn't want to do his history report.

) On the other hand, he'd miss his band, his friends, and Annie, his maybe-possibly-someday girlfriend.

He might even miss his big sister, Emma.

Then the vampire that bit him returns with a warning: the werewolf is dangerous.

Perhaps Tom should stick with sixth grade--even if it's mostly talent show disappointments, detention, and chicken-turkey-salami-roast beef sandwiches.

Created by an Emmy-nominated writer for SpongeBob, The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron , and CatDog, this hilarious series is illustrated with clever, cartoon-style art on every spread.

Perfect for fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and The Last Kids on Earth.
