A second meaty serving of the ZomBert Chronicles offers a suspenseful
treat for animal lovers and fans of spooky mysteries.
ZomBert is back in book two of a wry new mystery series by award-winning
creators Kara LaReau and Ryan Andrews. A stray cat who escaped the
YummCo Laboratories on the outskirts of Lambert, Bert has now been
officially adopted by nine-year-old Mellie Gore. He spends his days
dozing in Mellie's room and his nights hunting . . . and devouring fresh
prey. Bert's health and memory have returned, and his newfound strength
and smarts are off the charts. Mellie, meanwhile, is busy working odd
jobs to fund her cat's visit to the vet, convinced that Bert can win the
Best Pet contest at the upcoming YummCo-sponsored Harvest Festival. But
is Bert really the best pet in Lambert--or just the weirdest? And could
he be plotting revenge? Clever illustrated fare for fans of Bunnicula
and other humorous forays into the macabre.
