Bookroo's summary

In a world where monsters are just like kids, a new witch arrives at an island resort, stirring excitement and envy. As the Terribles, a group of young monsters, hold a nerve-wracking election for their leader, chaos ensues. Frankie, the scientist's daughter, teams up with Quade the Sasquatch for a greenhouse project, while you, a wereskunk, navigate a sleepover in an invisible house. With enchanting perks and mysterious portals, these monstrous adventures promise laughter and friendship. Will the Terribles prove they're more than just their name? Dive into a world of fun and fright!

From the publisher

The Terribles might be monsters, but they’re also kids just like you! Well, sort of. This hilarious peek into the world of vampires, mummies, swamp things, and bigfoots is perfect for fans of the Hotel Transylvania movies. There’s a NEW WITCH in town. And everyone wants to be her friend! She lives at the local island resort and gets to enjoy all the perks. Dolphin acrobats! Enchanting spa! Portal to the Underworld! Meanwhile, THE TERRIBLES hold a class election for the next Line Overlord (that’s like their student leader or whatever), and the results are TERRIFYING! Then Frankie (you know, the daughter of an INFAMOUS SCIENTIST) helps Quade the SASQUATCH build a greenhouse. Finally, YOU (as a wereskunk) go to a sleepover in an INVISIBLE HOUSE. They may be TERRIBLE, but these kids make some pretty great pals! Want to be a little more TERRIBLE? This series is told in alternating chapters, activities, charts, and crafts so you can read about monsters AND be just like one! Neat!
