Monster transformations continue at Washington Irving Elementary. When Norman joins his sister Angie and friend Splat on a walk in the woods, he sprouts hair and takes to howling at the moon. But Norman's troubles have only begun: he realizes he really enjoys his new form. Readers will quickly absorb this fast-paced monster fantasy with mildly eerie, full-page black-and-white illustrations.
