About This Book

Twelve-year-old Jack Westin is horrified to discover that he's been enrolled in Home Economics. Now way! Gross! But Jack turns the tables when he surprises the class with a very special project--a platter of sauteed grubs. Mmmmm. But the joke's on Jack. He'll have to eat them!

Sound appetizing?

How about the kid who wakes up to find a zit on his forehead the size of a plum. Even worse, something is squiggling around inside!

Night, night. Sleep tight. Don't let the bedbugs bite. Just a harmless nursery rhyme, right? Wrong. At least not for little Lisa Carpenter. She wakes up one night to a bed full of bugs. and they're looking for a bite...of her!

From the disgusting to the delightfully foul, each of the stories in this mouth watering collection is guaranteed to have you licking your chops for more!

Bon appetit....
