(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Jacqueline Rogers. In his ninth book, fourth grader Calvin and his friends get hired as extras in a zombie movie being filmed on the beach. Salisbury's message about figuring out one's role in one's family and among friends is neatly tucked into this humorous story. The Hawaiian setting of this illustrated series is vividly described, and the characters are nicely individualized.
