Here's an open call to anyone reading this: Do any of you remember those little pocket-sized books about werewolves and vampires and other mythical creatures that the Scholastic Book Company used to sell through their school ordering system (the tissue paper thin catalogs, whatever that system was called)? They had all these crazy made-up facts and they were the size of those horoscope books at grocery store registers. I would love to know what that series was called so I can try and get them off eBay.

troy steele said... That's it exactly. Thanks for the kind offer, but no need for you to part with it-- if you could just tell me (either here or via email) the full title, author, and the name of the series (if the series even had a title), that would be super helpful for me to track 'em down on my own NOVEMBER 19, 2008 2:49 AM

Monsters (Brown) 4. Vampires (Red) 5. Werewolves (Blue) 6. Mummies (Brown) I used to love them as a kid, hope you can find them! NOVEMBER 19, 2008 6:59 AM

Zak said... So does Aaron actually bite his dad in the end? And IS Ben really a werewolf? I forget... NOVEMBER 19, 2008 10:23 AM

troy steele said... Yes on both counts. Werewolf Aaron also acts like a dog and curls up on the floor while his father rubs his stomach NOVEMBER 19, 2008 10:34 AM

Brent Waggoner said... On the multiple choice entries, I think the answer is always C. NOVEMBER 19, 2008 10:37 AM

troy steele said... It's pretty damning for the series when it's hard to tell the joke answers from the real ones Oh, and thanks Martin! NOVEMBER 19, 2008 10:59 AM

Groggy Dundee said... How long was that one Troy? 108 pages right? NOVEMBER 25, 2008 10:18 PM

troy steele said... I lied, I'm really not updating to punish you all for letting Pushing Daisies get canceled. I hope this gives you all time to think about what you've done NOVEMBER 26, 2008 10:27 PM
