The Creeps: Night of the Frankenfrogs

Gr 3–6—As punishment for creating a giant mess in their school, Carol, Jarvis, Mitchell, and Rosario (known to their classmates as the Creeps) are being forced to perform the tasks normally completed by the janitor. When they discover that the frog specimens intended for dissection in their science class are missing, they know that they will be blamed, so they set out to discover who the real culprit might be. After a harrowing trek through the sewer and an encounter with a mad scientist, they are horrified to discover that the missing frog specimens have been reanimated as "frankenfrogs"—menacing monsters intent on attacking them with jolts of electricity. The Creeps use their unique skills and smarts to evade the frankenfrogs and discover who is creating these terrifying creatures—and why. This action-packed graphic novel features a diverse set of characters who are comfortable in their own skins and demonstrate that science can be dangerous and fun.
