(4) 4-6 Pop stars change into rodents, a pizza delivery boy turns into a vampire, and hip parents ditch their uncool kids in this book of brief tales about unexpected, freakish, and sometimes terrifying events. This volume of unpleasantness, although uneven, will likely find an audience among readers who have moved beyond Lemony Snicket.
