From the Grave

By Cynthia Reeg

Monster is as monster does, but Frankenstein Frightface Gordon is totally the wrong shade of ghastly green—pale, baby blue, in fact—and he's more concerned with keeping his pants neat and tidy than scaring the pants off his victims. But when a new law is passed to rid Uggarland of misfits such as Frank, he must decide if he will become the monster his parents can be proud of or be the monster he can be proud of. Trusting the monsterliest monster he knows, Frank looks to the grave and his dead grandmother to make his choice, entering into an adventure that will either seal his doom or prove he is truly monster enough.

Reviews for From the Grave

[kimpiddington · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Perfect read for the fall season. These monsters face "real" dileamas like fitting in and bullying that young readers can relate to. The author creates a believable world with delightfully monstrous vocabulary you'll enjoy readay Moanday-Frightday.
