  In this hair-raising and hilarious novel by New York Times bestselling author Chuck Wendig, a boy must face his many fears to save his town from a cursed videotape—before “The Scariest Movie Ever Made” devours his friends and family. Ethan Pitowski is afraid of everything. Luckily, his best friends don’t mind, and when their entire class gets invited to watch a long-buried horror movie at the most popular boy in school’s house, Ethan’s friends encourage him to join in the fun. But when the “scariest movie ever made” reveals itself to be not just a movie about a monster, but a movie that is a monster, only a terrified Ethan escapes its clutches. Now he must find a way to stop the monster and save his friends (and also, um, get their heads back). With his signature balance of kid-friendly horror and humor, Chuck Wendig crafts a spookily heartfelt novel about anxiety, friendship, and finding your unique voice and inner strength.

Hayes, an original member of the Stratford Shakespearean Festival skillfully based his characters on the personalities of the real directors, actors, and designers he worked with in the very early days of Canada’s renowned theatre.”A ten-year-old Child's Review:"I loved this book because it kept me interested throughout the entire story... I enjoyed how the two main characters (Adrian and Tiddlywinks) followed the same story line, but from different points of view. Another thing I enjoyed about it was how Adrian kept on trying to reach his goal, even though people kept on telling him he shouldn’t act. I really loved this book and I think you would too”- Alexandra Gilles age 10

  Jake has to attend a wedding out of town.  No one has been designated to take over as leader of the Animorphs.  But when Tobias tells the others that he's found the place where Visser Three currently feeds, there is a unanimous agreement on going after him.  The kids aquire cheetah morphs to run the visser down.   Unfortunately, there's a new player on the scene:  an inspector sent by the Council of Thirteen to check on Visser Three's eternal problems.  The inspector has a Garatron host body.  Garatrons are the newest hosts: like Andalites, but with shocking speed---and no morphing technology.  this Garatron-Controller outruns the Animorphs and Ax in their cheetah morphs, saving Visser Three.  The kids soon realize this inspector may provide a way to do away with  Visser Three.  If  they can convince the inspector that the visser is totally incompetent, totally unable to stop the "Andalite bandits,"  maybe the Visser will be recalled.  Now a dispute breaks out:  Who will run the mission in Jake's absence?  Marco and Rachel are the main aspirants.  Cassie takes herself out.  Tobias and Ax bow out.  In the end, Marco lets Rachel take control.  Rachel stages a series of reckless Rachel raids to harass known Controllers, with the goal of making the Visser seem impotent.  But Rachel's recklessness and impatience betray her when her failure to plan results in Cassie being captured and taken to the Yeerk pool.   Rachel's confidence collapses.  She learns about the flip side of leadership, the difficult choices Jake makes all the time.  The kids rescue Cassie with a spectacular assault on the Yeerk pool.  Rachel has succeeded, but her interest in leading is considerably diminished.
