But things get off to a rocky start--the goblins are causing a ruckus, the ogre is a total diva, and the werewolf keeps disappearing. This is not the perfect summer Tasha had hoped for. Then a series of mysterious mishaps occurs . . . someone is trying to sabotage Camp Monster! Can these monsters set aside their differences to find out who is behind the hijinks?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Previous collaborators Messner and Koch (Salem Witch Trials) reunite in this upbeat graphic novel featuring friendship and fun-in-the-sun hijinks of monstrous proportions. After yeti enrollment at family-owned Camp Yeti drops drastically, yeti Tasha's parents open the camp to all of monster-kind. Following this decision, the first group in attendance includes Tasha and her yeti cousin Kami, along with twin goblins, a diva ogress, a soccer-playing vegan vampire, a snarky griffin, and a hydrophobic werewolf. As the campers enjoy swimming lessons, hikes, and campfire singalongs, the adults worry that the increased scrutiny brought about by broadening the enrollment parameters will draw humans their way. When an incident of vandalism prompts manticore Manny, the head of security, to investigate, the young monsters determine to uncover the perpetrator themselves in a bid for camaraderie that sets the tone for the rest of their stay. Thick line art and bold, saturated hues render friendly-faced characters with personalities as distinct as their appearances. The cozy atmosphere cuts the tension of the perceived danger, resulting in a high-energy mystery adventure that emphasizes togetherness, open-mindedness, and inclusivity. Ages 8–12.
