Discover:

Boo! Hiss! by CYNDI MARKO! Ghost and Snake live in an old, old house. All by their lonesome, with no one to bother them.

How will this ghoulish ghost and slithery snake ever stop all this noise and reclaim their home?

Louie and the Bear Bite Back by BRADY SMITH! Louie, Bear, and all their friends have settled into the good life in the Land of Anything Goes after their defeat of Hairy Larry.

Soon, wild things start happening: all the kids start going through odd changes, they keep getting attacked by a shape-shifting, lightning-generating monster, and the Land literally starts raining fish!

Prunella doesn’t pay this talk much mind — until she unearths a strange skull-shaped ring in her garden. When she places it on her finger, she’s transformed into a skeleton girl, terrifying her monster-fearing town! Exiled, Prunella wanders the wilderness, where she discovers that monsters aren’t as bad as she’s been led to believe...
