When Stanley Nudelman goes to a witch’s yard sald in Dementedyville with his friend, he purchases a stuffed toy called “Zombiekins.” Before he leaves, the witch gives him a mysterious warning to read the instructions and to take the taffy since “You never know when it might come in handy” (p.19). When the doll suddenly comes to life and children and teachers are turning into zombie, Stanley starts wishing he had read the instructions. Can Stanley stop the spreading of becoming a zombie or will he turn into one himself?
A great adventure for Halloween or anyone in need of a fun, scary story. The characters are entertaining, the toy is almost cute, and the illustrations are well-done and complement the text. Reluctant and avid readers who like humorous books, off-the-wall stories, zombies, or Halloween will enjoy reading this book
