DESMOND PUCKET MAKES MONSTER MAGIC
by Mark Tatulli
Andrews McNeel Publishing
Ages 8 - 12
Someday Desmond will be famous for his special effects wizardry, but for
now he's just trying to make it through sixth grade at Cloverfield
Memorial Junior High, which means he needs to stay one step ahead of the
school's disciplinary officer, Mr. Needles.
The only problem is Desmond just can't stop pulling pranks—like the time he attached a shrieking rubber goblin to the toilet seat in the teachers' bathroom. Mrs. Rubin screamed so loudly her wig flew off! Or the time he put giant motorized worms into the mashed potatoes in the cafeteria. Or the time Desmond and his best friend, Ricky, arranged for a three-headed ghost to crash his sister's slumber party. Rachel still hasn't forgiven him.
And now Desmond has to stay prank-free for the rest of the year, or he won't be able to go on the class trip to Crab Shell Pier, home of the Mountain Full of Monsters ride! It's going to be tough, but Desmond has to try.
