What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Break a crazy curse with the Werewolf Club in this hilariously fun adventure! Everyone knows people turn into werewolves if they are bitten by a werewolf, but did you know you can turn into a werewolf by: 1.Thinking about werewolves 2.Reading a book like this one 3.For no reason at all Norman Gnormal didn’t know this until someone signed him up for the Werewolf Club at school. Raised as a puppy (he’s pretty sure his parents wanted a dog but got him instead), he never quite fit in with most kids at school, who don’t growl at people or dig holes in the lawn. But in the Werewolf Club he finds home with other kids who like running on all fours and howling at the moon. When the club learns that their teacher has been cursed, the only way to cure him is with Alexander the Great’s magic pretzel. But will the club be able to find the pretzel? And can Norman, the only non-werewolf in the club, keep up?
