Monster Slime Cereal vanished from grocery store shelves decades ago. Now, it's back from the dead and with thirteen proofs-of-purchase, you could win the secret slimy prize.
When twelve-year-old Max Wozzler's dad disappears one night while following the contest's spooky clues, Max refuses to be left out of the fun. Unlikely trio-Max, Toby (his classmate crush), and Darrel (his sworn archenemy)-hit the highway on a grand adventure to track down Mr. Wozzler and become prize-winners themselves. But what if Monster Slime Cereal isn't the wholesome breakfast it claims to be?
Uncovering conspiracies, navigating friendships, and dealing with gas-station weirdos, Max and his crew must dig up the truth before school resumes on Monday....
This debut novel by Mathew Levitt is a stay-up-all-night, binge-worthy read for both kids and adults. Funny and bone-chilling, Monster Slime Cereal will delight those who grew up with Goosebumps, The Goonies, and anyone who craves a macabre mystery.
GREAT TASTE FOR BOTH KIDS AND ADULTS!*

Autorentext
With a deep appreciation for the weirdness of humanity, Mat Levitt is a cultural anthropologist who works in museums, teaches university courses, and hosts the podcast Intangible Alberta. A natural born storyteller, he's been writing fiction for family and friends since he was old enough to spell. To keep himself balanced, Mat looks for every opportunity to be outdoors - hiking, exploring, and spending time near water. Another favourite hobby is digging through thrift stores for things to add to his horror and vintage action figure collection. He lives with his family in a suburban home built in the 70s that used to be haunted but isn't any more (they are pretty sure).
