Zombie Problems Series

It started out as a small zombie problem. Then four more zombies tagged along. Now there are too many to count! From the acclaimed illustrator of Flora & Ulysses comes the exciting conclusion to the Zombie Problems trilogy.

After facing an alligator attack and a paddle boat accident in search of the zombie stone, August comes out unscathed…but emptyhanded. At least Claudette is still by his side, along with a few more zombies. Of course, it isn’t long before a few zombies becomes a horde, and August has so many questions: What is he supposed to do with all of these zombies? What is his Aunt Orchid hiding? Will his life ever be like Stella Starz (in her own life)? And most importantly, will he ever find the zombie stone and get everything back to normal?

From the acclaimed illustrator of Flora & Ulysses comes the second book in the Zombie Problems trilogy, heralded by School Library Journal as “reminiscent of Roald Dahl in uniting the macabre with realism.”

What’s worse than discovering you have a zombie problem? Acquiring four more undead tag-alongs. . . .

When a zombie followed August DuPont home one day, he didn’t expect her to stick around. But Claudette is in no hurry to leave August’s side. And when he decides to go to Croissant City in search of the elusive Zombie Stone, Claudette joins him. It’s a good thing she does, because no sooner had August set out than a mysterious white alligator began to follow him. Reptiles aren’t the only creatures to look out for, though.

When August is reunited with his dour cousins the Malveaus, and their menacing mother, Orchid, finding the stone before they do takes on a new urgency. Throw in a swamp doctor, a costume parade, a pop star, a séance, a band of smugglers, and four new zombies, and you’d better believe that August’s quest is only going to get more complicated.

Celebrated illustrator K. G. Campbell (Flora and Ulysses) brings a touch of Tim Burton to this delightfully spooky new series about a boy who can’t help but attract zombies. . . .

August DuPont has spent his whole life inside a dilapidated house with his aunt Hydrangea. His lonely existence ends abruptly with a surprise invitation to meet an aunt and cousins he didn’t even know existed. When newfound Aunt Orchid suggests that August attend school with his cousins, it’s a dream come true. But August has scarcely begun to celebrate his good fortune when he is confronted by a small problem on his way home. A small, very undead problem.
