Written by Greg Van Eekhout
This is the story of a boy who is facing the weirdness of starting junior high, with the added problem that over the summer he has become an incontrollable shape-shifter. And the fun starts there. This book has science fiction, mystery, and adventure. It is fast-paced and lovable. The characters have real, as well as imagined problems and find their solutions as they work together. In the end, maybe it’s not so bad to be the weird kid.
