INTERMEDIATE FICTION
van Eekhout, Greg

Kid vs. Squid

(3) 4-6 Thatcher Hill is staying with his great-uncle--owner of Professor Griswald's Museum of the Strange and Curious and Gift Emporium--in a dumpy California beach town. Soon enough, Thatcher finds himself saving the town from a witch and her army of enchanted sea monsters. The fast-paced adventure is equal parts funny, gross, and far-fetched. Thatcher is the quintessential reluctant hero who rises to the occasion.
