Monster Hypothesis - by Romily Bernard (Hardcover)

About the Book

While her famous-scientist parents are away, sixth-grader Kick Winter lives with her grandmother, a psychic, in Bohring, home to 453 people, 2,053 alligators, and one curse.

Book Synopsis

Bohring is anything but boring for Kick Winter, who is now living there with her Grandma Missouri. Kick has already blown a hole through the kitchen floor, befriended a chicken-eating gator...and discovered that Bohring's 100-year curse is upon them-and all the kids are about to become monsters. Kick isn't worried, though. She knows there's a scientific explanation for everything, and as the new kid in school, she's determined to make a name for herself...by pretending to be psychic like her grandma. But when kids start disappearing and glowing creatures begin showing up, Kick's certainty quickly evaporates in a puff of foul-smelling swamp gas. Can she use her science smarts to prove this is all a hoax? Or is it possible that the curse is real? Find out in author Romily Bernard's funny, scientific, and perfectly eerie mystery!
