INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Skye, Obert

Wonkenstein

(3) 4-6 Creature from My Closet series. Robert Columbo Burnside is a self-proclaimed "pretty average kid...who can't play piano with my rear like that one genius kid, Todd, who lives down the street." He comically documents his daily mishaps, including the appearance of a half-Willy-Wonka, half-Frankenstein's-monster man who escapes from his closet. Rob's offbeat, stream-of-consciousness narration moves quickly; Wimpy Kid-esque cartoons and speech bubbles extend the jokes.
