Reviews

Praise for the The Zombie Chasers:"Kloepfer's first is a Zombieland for the middle-school set: funny, off-color and extremely gross. A great pick for the child who thought Diary of a Wimpy Kid just needed more motile corpses." -- Kirkus Reviews Praise for The Zombie Chasers #2: Undead Ahead:"Written with tongue firmly in cheek-and other body parts all over the landscape-this book will appeal to reluctant readers, particularly middle school boys." -- School Library Journal Praise for The Zombie Chasers #3: Sludgment Day:"Fans of Garbage Pail Kid-style gross-outs will have a ball as Zack and his buddies take down "a butt-load of zombies." -- ALA Booklist
