With a hurricane looming and eviction on the line, Jake and his quirky roommates must solve the mystery of his strange powers. Will Jake uncover the truth within himself before it's too late, or will the wolves cost him everything? Dive into a tale of friendship, self-discovery, and the weirdest band practice ever.

From the publisher

Jake Spooky keeps puking up wolves… …and he has no idea why. Meet Jake Spooky. He’s a shy, punk-rockin’ ghost who has some strange and mysterious powers bubbling just below the surface. Things can get a little bit…WEIRD in Jake’s world. Luckily, his roommates, the TV-headed Brand-o and Quincy the cat, help keep things under control–most of the time. One day, as a massive hurricane approaches, Jake can’t seem to stop puking up wolves, and their landlord has had enough! If any more wolves show up, the three friends are going to get kicked out of their house. Jake just wants to chill out and have band practice. But first, he will need to look inside himself and unravel the mystery of the wolves within. “Reading Jake Spooky is like taking a walk into Michael Grover’s delightfully bizarre brain, it literally made me hungry for more (and strawberry jam)”. - Jerusha Hess (Oscar-nominated co-creator of Napoleon Dynamite and Nacho Libre)
