Bookroo's summary

Karl's dream of joining the Junior Club Werewolves shatters, but he won't give up. Rallying a vampire, a zombie, a blob, and other rejected creatures, he forms a team of misfits. With their first game looming and little time to prepare, can they harness their unique abilities to defy the odds and triumph? Discover the power of teamwork and individuality in this thrilling tale of underdogs.

From the publisher

Watching this team of misfit monsters is a scream! All Karl wants to do is make the Junior Club Werewolves team. But when tryouts turn into a monster letdown, Karl decides to put together a squad made up of other creatures who didn’t make their own teams. A vampire, a zombie, a blob, and others all decide to play together. With their first game coming up and almost no time to practice, this group of misfits must use the qualities that make them special to overcome the odds and win.
