Synopsis

Tom is desperate to fit in at school, but he's hungry and howling, not to mention half dead. Blame it on the vampire--and the werewolf--and the zombie--in this monstrously funny new series from SpongeBob SquarePants head writer Steven Banks.

"Fast! Funny! Fresh!" - Chris Grabenstein, #1 New York Times best-selling author of the Mr. Lemoncello's Library series

"What are you waiting for? Open this book right now!" - Tom Angleberger, New York Times best-selling author of the Origami Yoda series

Thanks to a series of unfortunate bites, eleven-year-old Tom is a triple threat: he's a Vam-Wolf-Zom. And just in time for the first day of middle school. So much for his Invisible Tom Plan. He never thought to make a What If I Turn Into A Vampire Werewolf Zombie Plan. Maybe it's time for a Run Away and Live Somewhere Else Plan?

With the help of his irrepressible best friend, Zeke, Tom tries to accept his future. Zeke thinks being a Vam-Wolf-Zom sounds EXCELLENT! (Zeke thinks everything sounds EXCELLENT!) At least he'll be able to stand up to the sixth-grade bully. The question is will the rest of Hamilton Middle School accept the Vam-Wolf-Zom, too?

Created by an Emmy-nominated writer for SpongeBob, The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, and CatDog, this new series is perfect for fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and The Last Kids on Earth. EXCELLENT!

For me, the second it hits September 1, it's Halloween season. I start reading any sort of spooky, monsterish sort of book I can get my hands on. Scary, funny, cute....I don't care what sort. If it's Halloween-y in any way -- it's at the top of my TBR. Since I just finished a pretty heavy adult horr......more

This lighthearted audiobook was just what a needed after a difficult week of real life events. Fun fiction and witty voice! Middle schooler, Tom, is experiencing some unique feelings and cravings. He's constantly hungry, he can see well in the dark, and he accidentally howls right in the middle of c......more

If you thought middle school was tough, then think again! Tom is starting his middle school adventures while being a vampire/zombie/werewolf. Yup. I was instantly curious about the premise. I mean, we have had books with kids being one of those and starting school, but I haven’t seen a book in which......more

Can you order the next book RIGHT NOW, or can we go to the library after school? Pleeeaaassseee! I can’t wait!” Thanks for an EXCELLENT......more

Goodreads review by Gregg on August 28, 2020

A fun, fast read -- read it with my 10 year old son. As soon as we finished, he was dying to read the sequel (which is thankfully coming out next month!). So there is no higher praise than a kid desperate to read the next book in the series. A great mix of supernatural fantasy with humor and a groun......more
