A Small Zombie Problem

By: K. G. Campbell

Narrated by: Todd Haberkorn

In his fiction debut--and the start of a new series--celebrated illustrator K.G. Campbell brings a touch of Tim Burton to this singularly strange and wonderful story about a lonely boy whose life is about to get a whole lot more complicated when a zombie follows him home.

August DuPont has spent his whole life inside a dilapidated house with his aunt Hydrangea. His lonely existence ends abruptly with the arrival of an invitation to meet an aunt--and cousins--he didn't even know existed. When Aunt Orchid suggests that August attend school with his cousins, it's a dream come true. But August has scarcely begun to celebrate his reversal of fortune when he is confronted by a small problem on his way home. So begins an adventure filled with a wild child, a zombie, a fabled white alligator, and an unimaginable family secret.

entertaining story

I really enjoyed this story. it was very entertaining. I enjoyed seeing August learn to become independent after living a sheltered life. Todd Haberkorn did another amazing performance. I enjoy his performances. Looking forward to starting the second book.
