Celebrated illustrator K. G. Campbell (Flora and Ulysses) brings a
touch of Tim Burton to this delightfully spooky new series about a boy
who can't help but attract zombies. . . .
August DuPont has spent his whole life inside a dilapidated house with
his aunt Hydrangea. His lonely existence ends abruptly with a surprise
invitation to meet an aunt and cousins he didn't even know existed. When
newfound Aunt Orchid suggests that August attend school with his
cousins, it's a dream come true. But August has scarcely begun to
celebrate his good fortune when he is confronted by a small problem on
his way home. A small, very undead problem.
