In The Northern Frights, the third book in the spooky Scary School series, Charles “New Kid” Nukid and his friends, including Lattie, a girl ninja, must fight an epic battle with an ice dragon to save their school. But first they must survive going to Scream Academy as exchange students. And that may be hard, because the Academy has an abominable snowman for a principal, a Headless Horseman as one of the teachers, and the students are yetis, trolls, and ogres!
Will Charles survive to make an ancient prophecy come to pass and save everyone? The illustrated Scary School trilogy by Derek the Ghost, with its mix of humor, scares, and adventure, is a perfect pick for middle-grade readers of the Wayside School series and the Zach Files books.
Charles Nukid and his friends—including new student Lattie, a tough ninja girl—take on their biggest challenge yet in this frighteningly funny addition to the Scary School series. When they're chosen to attend Scream Academy as exchange students, they'll have to face:
- Rolf Meltington—the principal of Scream Academy and the abominable snowman
- Polter-bears—part poltergeist, part polar bear . . . totally frightening
- The Headless Horseman—don't lose your head in his class
But there's something even scarier than going to school with yetis, ogres, and trolls: the Ice Dragon. As an ancient prophecy comes to pass, Charles finds himself destined to battle the monstrous Ice Dragon in order to save both Scream Academy and Scary School from destruction.
