“Book Descriptions: A stirring adventure of monsters, saving the world, and the bond between brothers by storyteller supreme Bruce Coville.
No doubt about it, little brothers can be monsters. For sixth grader Jake Doolittle, those words are more than just an expression. Instead, they perfectly describe the way his adoptive brother, LD, sprouts pointy ears, thick fur, and fangs in moonlight.
Not only is LD a monster.... Other monsters have plans for him. But together with his friend “Weird Lily” Carker, Jake isn’t about to let anything happen to the baby. The little guy is still his brother, even if it turns out that LD may be the key to saving the world—or destroying it.
In his 100th novel, master of comic suspense Bruce Coville presents a tale of ominous dangers and hairbreadth escapes, of the conflict between forces of dark and light, and of the lengths to which one boy will go to save his brother—monster or not.” DRIVE
