A Monster Ate My Homework
Author(s):
Tim Kelly
Obie Adams is doing his best to hide from his English teacher, Miss Dale, who is involved with directing an intense production of "Dracula." Once again, he's lost his homework, and if Obie doesn't pass this year's English class, it's no diploma for our likable, but weird, hero. Even worse, it could mean (gasp!) summer school! Obie doesn't dare admit to losing it -- he's already used that excuse once too often. So instead, he concocts a wild yarn involving the peculiar Mortimer Crank and his spooky housekeeper, Mrs. Dank. Mortimer has been turning animals into semi-human beings! There's Feydor the dog-boy, Luana the panther-lady, Kong the gorilla-boy, and... well, you get the picture. Also trapped in Mortimer's strange house are Mrs. Chapman and her three daughters. Mortimer has never forgiven the mother for jilting him years before. He plans a terrible (and hilarious) revenge. Lucky for Obie he's studying detective work by mail and has Clara Sidewinder to guide him. With weirdos popping in and out of the dark and stormy night, none of it makes much sense. Except to Obie, who has the entire "Dracula" cast engrossed in his tall tale. Maybe Obie really is telling the truth. The result is a spectacular comic romp. (Also available as a musical.)
