It appears that the entire population has been turned intozombies, except for 13-year-old Jack Sullivan. Jack is an abandoned foster kid trying to survivethe catastrophe while living in a tricked-out tree house. In his daily fight for survival, which includeshand-to-hand combat using makeshift weapons, he locates two of his fellow students. One's ascience geek, and the other's an oversize school bully. They unite to form a small army and set offto rescue a classmate they believe is trapped in their decimated school. The chapter book/graphicnovel hybrid is fast moving and action packed. Loaded with outrageous devices such as a rollingball of zombies, a revenge-filled creature with bad eyesight called BLARGH, and a monster-dogname Rover, this book provides loads of laughs. The characters are fully developed and honest intheir adolescent interactions. Yet what sets this story apart from the typical gross-out fare is howthese modern-day action heroes work through their emotions, which include love, loss, andextreme fear. Dynamic pencil sketches add to the hilarity. For readers looking to make thetransition from chapter books to graphic novels, this is a foolproof initiation.
