Yuckers!

Stevie Brickwald has a reputation for being messy and odd, and his taste in breakfast doesn't help: he's a devoted eater of Yuckers! cereal, a snack packed with chemicals no one trusts. When he starts stirring a mystery ingredient into his bowl, strange events begin unfolding at school. Lunchtime milk vanishes, a small pink dog appears diving headfirst into the drinking fountain, and a steady thumping cuts through Ms. Cosgrove's math lesson. Is another monster really roaming the halls of P.S. 13?

Danny Keegan has a different view of monsters. In his opinion, not every one of them is dangerous, and he should know, since several of his closest friends happen to be monsters. The story follows a classroom full of fifth graders whose lives are anything but ordinary.

This is the first step into the lively world of The Fifth Grade Monsters.
