Description
Fans of The Bad Guys and Catwad will love THE CRYPTID CLUB, a hilarious new four-book graphic novel series about an unlikely team of kid sleuths out to solve the mysteries behind the sudden spate of monster sightings around their school.
Lily knows better than to listen to the gossip her little brother, Henry, has heard, but when her school newspaper needs a big headline, the rumor that Bigfoot has been spotted is the best lead shes got.
But when claw marks appear on the football equipment and excessive animal hair starts clogging-up the gym showers, Lily knows she cant be afraid. This is her opportunity to break the story wide-open. But can Lily, Henry, and Oliver, the neighbor-kid theyre babysitting, discover what Bigfoot wants before its too late
Everything is not as it seems in this hilarious new graphic novel series debut by Emmy Awardwinning writer for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert Michael Brumm and bestselling illustrator Jeff Mack.
Reviews
Mack's comical, goggle-eyed figures have outsize emotions, and the frequent sight gags keep the tone cheery and light. A joke-filled monster story about being open-minded while examining the facts, The Cryptid Club checks all the right boxes. Booklist
