Tales from Lovecraft Middle School #1: Professor Gargoyle
Gr 4-7-In this series kickoff, Robert is a nice kid just trying to navigate the pitfalls of a new school. It doesn't take him long to realize, however, that the pitfalls of Lovecraft Middle School may involve actual pits. A wide variety of lusciously phantasmagorical vocabulary ("mesmerized," "fetid," "ventriloquist") festoons the readable, peppy text.
