One night, a young student's thesaurus disappears from her bedroom. A
trail of slimy footprints leads to the bedroom window, so she looks
outside and sees the thesaurus down below in the grass. Then, suddenly,
a colossal monster unfolds itself from the pages of the thesaurus like
an origami creation gone terribly wrong. Soon, it towers above the
family's house, constantly changing its form and sprouting a new weapon
with each transformation! Who could possibly defeat this shape-shifting
monster made of synonyms? This reading experience is complete with
non-fiction back matter, including discussion questions, writing
prompts, and glossaries, these mysteries are as educational as they are
enthralling.
