Edward Changeover #2: The Australian Boogieman

Edward Changeover is a fourth grader…who also happens to be the world’s only Norwegian werewolf.When he overhears his classmates talking about a mysterious purple monster wrapped in fog that hides under the bed, he feels a strange curiosity. But when it turns out that the Australian boogieman (A.B.) is real and coming after him, Edward must seek the advice of a monster expert—his friend Ali’s mom—if he has any hope of discovering who the beast really is and where it’s living.Using what they learned from Countess Valazquez, Edward and Ali narrow down their suspect pool to four: a bully who’s been acting suspiciously nice, a teacher whose appearance seems off, an ill-looking student, and a quiet kid who’s suddenly more chatty. But with no further clues, how can they determine which suspect is the monster? The only thing Edward knows for sure is if he doesn’t unmask the A.B. soon, he’s in danger of being overtaken by his own angry dark side.The second book in the Edward Changeover series is a funny, action-mystery packed with cliffhangers galore that will have you running alongside Edward as he races to save his friends and himself.
