About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is looking for a fast-paced, funny adventure that explores the unexpected responsibilities of caring for something smaller and hungrier than themselves. Part of the Scream Street series, this story follows three best friends (a vampire, a werewolf, and a mummy) as they return from a quest in Tibet only to realize they have accidentally kidnapped a baby yeti. It is a perfect choice for reluctant readers who enjoy 'gross-out' humor but need a narrative that emphasizes loyalty and teamwork. While the setting is spooky, the tone remains lighthearted and zany. Through the chaos of a ravenous supernatural houseguest, the story subtly touches on the importance of accountability and the ethics of returning what belongs to others. It is an ideal bridge for kids transitioning from early readers to more complex middle-grade fiction, offering plenty of action without being truly frightening.
