(Atheneum, Oct. 1, 2000)
Even a child who is pure of heart And does his homework neatly May become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms And the moon is full completely Werewolf Club member Billy Furball has been banned from the school lunchroom for having a food fight with himself. Worse yet, Dr. Cookie Mendoza, the Board of Education Psychiatrist, insists that none of the members of the club are really werewolves because werewolves don't exist. How will our heroes confront such crises? To support their pal Billy, the other members of the Club boycott the school lunchroom, too. All end up dining instead at Honest Tom's Tibetan-American Lunchroom where they get to know Captain Sterling, of the North American Space Squad, and Carla Lola Carolina, the restaurant's manager. When Carla undergoes a rather strange transformation the situation gets serious! Only a grisly encounter with alien meatballs...oh, it's too horrible to tell. You'll have to read The Lunchroom of Doom yourself to see what happens.
