Horn Book (Wed Aug 01 00:00:00 CDT 2018)

Boy Victor and his duck sidekick Dumpylumps search for their next "thing to do" (make sneakers out of kindergartners; assume charge of the school chefs). Victor settles on inventing a new cello for friend Patti, but it produces such horrible music that zombies rise from their graves. The ridiculous premise leads to nonsensical action and groan-inducing puns; cartoony line drawings reinforce the slapstick.

A new series from the bestselling author of Dear Dumb Diary and Franny K. Stein!

Fresh from his intergalactic adventure, Victor is casting about for something new to apply his formidable know how to. The obvious next step is cello-making. However, the not so mellifluous sounds that emanate from his creations are enough to wake the dead. That's right, there are zombies let loose and it's up to Victor, Patty, and the long-suffering, always faithful Dumpylumps to not get eaten.
