Description:
Welcome to Scary School - a school where just making through lunch with all your limbs is considered a good day. The author, an 11-year-old ghost named Derek the Ghost, invites you to join Charles "New Kid" Nukid and his friends as they try to make it through the days with vampire teachers, dinosaur librarians, and zombie classmates. Think the principal will save you? Her name is Principal Headcrusher, so don't even think about it.
Things become extra scary when Scary School is chosen to host the annual Ghoul Games, a junior olympics events between all the "scary" schools of the world. But with humans in the mix for the first time, the rules change so that the winners get eat the losers alive. The human kids of Scary School don't stand a chance against their bigger, stronger monster opponents and it could spell the end of Scary School forever!

Hey there Derek! Remember me? I won one of your books a while ago. I wanted to share something with you. I work part time for our city's elementary after school program. I work there full time in the summer, but only on Wednesdays during the school year. I decided to start reading Scary School to the kids in October for a Halloween treat. Well, I am now their favorite person. They absolutely loved it! They couldn't wait for me to get started on Wednesdays, and were dissapointed when I had to stop. When we finished we went right to the website to read the secret chapter. And they almost can't wait until the next one comes out! Even if I'm not at that school next year, I'll have to arrange to go there and read it to them. All the kids loved it from kindergarten to 5th grade. Hope you are enjoying great success, and plan to keep the school open! Thanks again! Lindis Russell : ) P.S. Jason is my fave!









































I'm doing tons of school visits right now, so maybe I'll be able to visit you guys one day. What part of the country are you in?
