The Birthday Party of Dread




As seen on Disney XD, a hilarious graphic novel perfect for fans of Captain Underpants!
Fangbone and his friends are full of ideas for Eastwood Elementary's "Invention Convention." Unfortunately, Venomous Drool has ideas of his own--like sending a curse to crush Fangbone! But when the misdirected spell sends a terrifying monster to attack Bill at his birthday party instead, Fangbone must invent a way to save his best friend--and fast!

The graphic novel series that boys go wild for!
