Geisel Award-winner Ethan Long shows that every kid has the power to conquer school-day worries once and for all. In the darkest of nights, when all else is lost, Scotty is ready to vanquish any foe. After all, that' s what a superhero does. But this hero is about to come face-to-face with his greatest fear, his only weakness: the first day of school! But just when Scotty thinks all hope is lost, he realizes that school is no match for a whole team of heroes--his new friends.
"Long' s graphite pencil and digitally colored illustrations are packed with gross-out details that will have kids in stitches. " --Kirkus Reviews on FANGSGIVING"Ingenious. . . . This engaging picture book celebrates the gathering of family and friends; helping young readers to understand and appreciate the value of giving thanks. " --School Library Journal on FANGSGIVING"Long' s sense of comic timing is utter perfection. Hysterically plays on kids' stereotyped notions of love, hopefully putting some to rest. " --Kirkus Reviews, starred review, on VALENSTEINS"There are lots of laughs to be found in Long' s twilit cartoons and the banter among the characters" --Publishers Weekly on VALENSTEINS"Long' s dark, ghostly palette sets an appropriately eerie mood, and he has a lot of fun with the cuddly animals' reign of terror. " --Publishers Weekly, starred review, on FRIGHT CLUB"The lighthearted tone makes this Halloween tale a perfect pick for younger children. " --Booklist on FRIGHT CLUB"High-octane, bright pictures. . . . may well provide a boost of confidence to wary, school-bound superheroes. " --Publishers Weekly
