About the Book

In this first volume of a thrilling middle grade graphic novel series, a sixth-grader named Pablo discovers his locker is a portal to the realm of monsters! For hundreds of years, something in the basement of Glenfield Middle School has waited for its chance to open a portal into the realm of monsters. Now its time has come, and the school is going to need a hero. Pablo Ortiz . . . isn't that guy. All he wants to do is lie low and get through middle school in one piece. So when Pablo accidentally opens the portal and summons a vengeful Aztec goddess, he'll need the butt-kicking skills of his new friends and the wisdom passed down by his abuela to take her on.

Review :
A Kirkus Best Book of the Year An ALA Best Graphic Novel for Children "A rich cast of culturally diverse characters, seamlessly inserted social commentary, and bustling, snappy artwork contribute greatly to a briskly paced adventure that teases a sequel. A simply smashing monster bash." --Kirkus, starred review "With laugh-out-loud humor, rich cultural details, and eye-catching illustration, this series opener will have readers clamoring for the next installment." --School Library Journal, starred review "This graphic novel series opener by Aguirre (Call Me Iggy) gets off to a rip-roaring start that hints at even more exciting creatures to come." -Publishers Weekly Praise for The Chronicles of Claudette series: "These stylish books -- there are three so far -- are called "Giants Beware!," "Monsters Beware!" and "Dragons Beware!," and they are just the thing for kids who like fractured fairy tales." --New York Times
