The first installment of the ‘Notebook of Doom’ series: ‘Rise of the Balloon Goons’ involves school boy Alexander who finds himself in a bizarre new town. The kind of town where his classroom is temporarily relocated to an old hospital morgue (while the original school building undergoes reconstruction). There he discovers a Notebook containing confidential information about monsters, and faces off against malevolent balloon beings! Black and white illustrations on every page keep the pages turning, and beginning readers will delight in the thrilling mix of creepiness and hilarity. Scholastic has produced the book as part of it’s ‘Branches’ collection, which aims to increase reader stamina and confidence. Image and publication information sourced from Scholastic.
