There's no April freshness at the Pinch family's house. Their new cleaning lady smells disgusting. But that's pretty normal...for a zombie! And she's turning everyone else in Critter Falls into zombies, too. It's up to the Howls to stop her, without being eaten alive!
This is how the critters do a chapter book. Its not as fun as the picture books. There is not enough opportunity for Mayer's illustrations to shine, and the story just seems too wordy. But I still liked it.
