We have known them in cinema or television, literature, urban legends and mythology, many are so ancient that we do not even know their true origin.

When twelve-year-old Lowell moves to a new village, he struggles to fit in at school - he is a bit different, and the bullies don't seem to like different. Then the changes start. At first, Lowell thinks these are just the ordinary, growing-up kind of changes: he gets hairier, his voice gets growlier and his moods are all over the place. But then one full-moon night, after a VERY bad day at school, he transforms into a werewolf in front of his twin sister, Lys.? Join Lowell as he joins the Monster Support Group in an attempt to return to 'normal'.Trade ReviewIn this hilarious, fast paced romp (...) we learn that it's ok to be exactly who we are.
