Captain Underpants's spookiest - and stretchiest - adventure yet!
George Beard and Harold Hutchins are back in a new Halloween
adventure! Piqua's biggest pranksters are getting ready for the
best holiday ever - Halloween, of course. But their dreams of
costumes, candy and haunted houses go down the drain when Mr Krupp
and Melvin start a campaign to make Halloween illegal! That's when
George and Harold come up with HACK-A-WEEN, a totally legal
spin-off of Halloween. But will disguises, hack-o'-lanterns and
sneak-or-snacking fill the pumpkin-shaped holes in their lives?
Find out in this comic reader based on the "Hack-A-Ween" episode of
the hit Netflix show.
My book has five short stories, they are very important to life,
and I used animals to explain these books. The first is about the
importance of taking care of your children, and siblings loving
each other, because we never know when one of them will no longer
be with your family. Another is about the importance of education
and skipping school just to have fun is never that important. One
of them is about a small Pig that was born disabled and needed love
and help to remain alive. The last two are about Bullies and how we
must avoid the contemptible things that they say and do. I hope you
will enjoy these five short stories and that you will explain to
your children, grand-children, and great-grandchildren the
importance of each short story.

Elijah is building a fort in the woods behind his new home when he
is greeted by a strange girl named Iris. At first she helps him
work, but she soon insists on a game of hide-and-seek. So Elijah
searches and searches for Iris . . . until it begins to get dark.
Just as he yells that he has to go home, Iris suddenly appears,
angry about being left alone in the woods. It's only the first
troubling omen as Elijah grows more uncertain if he wants to spend
time with his hide-and-seek friend. In this Scary Graphics tale,
easy-to-read text and eerie, full-colour art combine to deliver
just-right scares for kids who crave chills and thrills.
Seventh grade has been surprisingly quiet for Percy Jackson. Not a
single monster has set foot on his New York prep-school campus. But
when an innocent game of dodgeball among Percy and his classmates
turns into a death match against an ugly gang of cannibal giants,
things get...well, ugly. And the unexpected arrival of his friend
Annabeth brings more bad news: the magical borders that protect
Camp Half-Blood have been poisoned by a mysterious enemy, and
unless a cure is found, the only safe haven for demigods will be
destroyed.
In the follow-up to the wildly popular "The Lightning Thief, The
Graphic Novel, "Percy and his friends must journey into the Sea of
Monsters to save their camp. But first, Percy will discover a
stunning new secret about his family--one that makes him question
whether being claimed as Poseidon's son is an honor or simply a
cruel joke.
Featuring a faithful adaptation by Robert Venditti, stunning
artwork by Attila Futaki, and sumptuous colors by newcomer Tamas
Gaspar, Rick Riordan's blockbuster book comes to life in The Sea of
Monsters, The Graphic Novel.
