Bruce Coville

Russell wanted to be a monster for Halloween—but this wasn’t what he had in mind! “[A] lively tale.” —The New York Times

Twist it once, you're horned and haired;

Twist it twice and fangs are bared;

Twist it thrice? No one has dared!

After running away from the school bully, Russell finds himself on a street he’s never seen before—and inside an amazing magic shop. But when he leaves, he’s sure that the ring he bought from the ancient-looking Mr. Elives is just a silly trick, as useless as those X-Ray Specs he ordered from the back of a comic book. Then, without reading the instructions carefully, he twists the ring—and actually starts turning into a monster . . .

The Monster's Ring

In this magical fantasy adventure by the award-winning author of Jeremy Thatcher, Dragon Hatcher, a talking toad takes a girl on a wild ride.

Jennifer Murdley has always wanted to be pretty.

That’s why she’s so surprised to leave Mr. Elives’s magic shop with a particularly ugly toad. As her worst enemy says, “A toad for a toad. ”

But this toad can talk. And what it has to say sets Jennifer off on a journey that leads her into the company of the Immortal Vermin and straight to the Beauty Parlor of Doom … where she comes face-to-face with her deepest fears and dreams.

Jennifer Murdley would give anything to be beautiful. But sometimes anything is too high a price to pay.

“Endlessly funny … . A roller-coaster ride of a story, full of humor and even wisdom. ” —Kirkus Reviews

Jennifer Murdley's Toad

A magical fantasy adventure about the high cost of loving, from the award-winning author of My Teacher Is an Alien and The Unicorn Chronicles.

Juliet Dove is a girl who doesn't like to be noticed. But though she may be shy, she has a wickedly sharp wit. Whenever someone does take notice of her, she tears into the person with a savagery that’s earned her the nickname “Killer. ”

Juliet ends up leaving Mr. Elives’s magic shop with Helen of Troy's amulet—that is, a virtual man magnet. Juliet doesn’t know what she’s got, but the boys in her class do—they start to notice her …

Soon every boy in town is swooning for her. Yet, much as she’d like to lose all the unwanted attention, she can’t: The amulet won't come off!

“Although humorous, the story has surprising depth, with musings on honor, power, strength, courage, and, above all, love. ” —School Library Journal

“A rare book … . Funny [and] absorbing. ” —Miami Herald
