Marvin and the Moths by Matthew Holm and Jonathan Follett is a hilariously weird middle-grade novel that blends humor, horror, and sci-fi into one unforgettable adventure.
 
Marvin is just starting middle school—already tough enough without giant mutant moths invading town! When a strange experiment gone wrong unleashes massive moth monsters, Marvin and his unlikely group of friends must figure out how to save their school (and possibly the world).
With illustrations throughout and a perfect mix of comedy and creepy chaos, Marvin and the Moths is a fun, fast-paced pick for reluctant readers, fans of silly adventures, and anyone who loves their sci-fi with a big dose of humor.
