Arnold Z. Ombee has escaped a secret government zombie project -- but now can he survive human elementary school?From the hilarious mind behind the Crimebiters series comes a new trilogy that fans of The Last Kids on Earth will love to pieces (literally). Arnold Z. Ombee has escaped a secret government lab that's developing zombies. Young, scared, and alone, he is found by the Kinders, a warmhearted couple who take him in. The Kinders decide Arnold will become part of their family. They help him disguise his undead appearance and teach him how to act like a human boy. After a lot of practice, he's ready for the ultimate test: Fifth grade!

George is determined to save the world by lunchtime, but he’s not quite sure how. Grandpa suggests they start by recycling the yogurt container from his breakfast, putting his banana peel in the compost pile, and hanging the laundry to dry in the sun. A bike trip to the recycling center, charity shop, and local farmers’ market show how recycling and reusing materials—as well as using less gas and buying local produce—can really help save the world. George even gets a favorite toy fixed! Highly original and eye-catching illustrations combine painting and photographs to draw children into the world of recycling.

Arnold Z. Ombee is back in this wacky, page-turning sequel to A Zombie Ate My Homework!The zombie secret is out!Sort of... Scientists at the lab that Arnold escaped from claim they've changed their tune. Instead of creating super zombie soldiers, they just want humans and zombies to be friends.Too good to be true? Probably. But Arnold agrees to help teach other zombies everything he's learned so far about being a real human boy. But there's something that seems strange about these new "zombies" (well, stranger than usual). Arnold knows it's up to him to unearth the secret before it eats him up inside. And outside. And everywhere else.

The thrilling conclusion to the Project Z trilogy!Life as an undead fifth grader is pretty good for Arnold. He finally feels like he can embrace both his zombie side (unlimited jellybeans!) and his regular kid side (kickbutt trampoline moves!).And now there's a new zombie in town. Azalea, Arnold's closest friend from the Territory, is living with Evan's family and ready to try out human elementary school. But when Azalea questions whether or not she wants to return to the Territory, Arnold starts having doubts, too. Should he stay-- or go?
