Tales from Lovecraft Middle School #3: Teacher's Pest by Charles Gilman

Two-headed monsters, giant tentacles, angry demons - Lovecraft Middle School is great creepy fun. (Ransom Riggs, author of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children). DON'T BE FOOLED by his friendly smile, his perfect manners, or his shiny red apple. Student council president Howard Mergler is actually a sinister bug-monster in disguise-and he's summoning swarms of roaches, wasps, fleas, and head lice into the corridors of Lovecraft Middle School! Twelve-year-old Robert Arthur is the only student who can stop him - but he'll need help from his best friends: the school bully, the school ghost, and an extremely courageous two-headed rat. This third novel in the Lovecraft Middle School series begins right where Professor Gargoyle and The Slither Sisters ended-with more action, more adventure, and more outrageous monsters.
