In The Northern Frights, the third book in the spooky Scary School series, Charles “New Kid” Nukid and his friends, including Lattie, a girl ninja, must fight an epic battle with an ice dragon to save their school. But first they must survive going to Scream Academy as exchange students. And that may be hard, because the Academy has an abominable snowman for a principal, a Headless Horseman as one of the teachers, and the students are yetis, trolls, and ogres!
Will Charles survive to make an ancient prophecy come to pass and save everyone? The illustrated Scary School trilogy by Derek the Ghost, with its mix of humor, scares, and adventure, is a perfect pick for middle-grade readers of the Wayside School series and the Zach Files books.
I have been following the adventures at Scary School for three books now! If you are ever looking for a book to donate to an elementary school teacher/library or the kid in your life you can’t go wrong with any book in this silly series.
In book #3 The Northern Frights our narrator and friend Derek the Ghost once again tells of the adventures at Scary School. This gang takes another adventure even deadlier then before. They are sent to Scream Academy as exchange students for a week (and this has nothing to do with the prophecy about a human kid fighting the scariest monster ever). Unlike Scary School, there are no human children at Scream Academy and the monster kids don’t want them there. The gang has to battle bullies, avoid getting eaten by a yeti and face down a terrible dragon (which has nothing to do with the prophecy about a human kid fighting the scariest monster ever). After all that Charles Nukid must face his biggest fear… asking Penny Possum to the dance. Along the way the Scary School gang makes many new friends, including Lattie, a ninja who talks like a Chinese fortune, and has a quest of her own.
The Northern Frights, as well as the first two books, is action packed and fast moving. There is no chance for kids to get bored while reading, but they might bust a gut laughing. Scott M. Fischer once again provides illustrations of all the scary characters throughout the story.

I love that they have series like this. They are just fun. Saw a post the other day about the new release for Captain Underpants and it left me longing for those days when I would stand in line with my son for the new release of these fun reads.
