"Equal parts screwball comedy, coming-of-age story, and tearjerker-I
loved, loved, loved it!" --Varian Johnson, author of The Parker
Inheritance
With a madcap sense of humor and a lot of heart (not to mention other
body parts), The Mortification of Fovea Munson is Young Frankenstein
for today's middle grade audience!
Fovea Munson is nobody's Igor. True, her parents own a cadaver lab where
they perform surgeries on dead bodies. And yes, that makes her gross by
association, at least according to everyone in seventh grade. And sure,
Fovea's stuck working at the lab now that her summer camp plans have
fallen through. But she is by no means Dr. Frankenstein's snuffling
assistant!
That is, until three disembodied heads, left to thaw in the wet lab,
start talking. To her. Out loud. And they need a favor.
