The SSMP is focused on breaking records with their STEM camp at the library. The whole town is gearing up to break the world record for largest Smore. But the SSMP is a little distracted from their projects when they realize there's another monster in town. They think they might know what it is, but are they on the right track or not?

I know some parents who would love to hire out the monster from this story for a day or two. It is a little obsessive compulsive about things being clean. Which is good on one level, but as our heroes find out can go too far. Another nice little mystery for the SSMP to solve.

Notes on content: The monster very briefly puts the kids in a perilous situation but no one is hurt.
