Danny and the Detention Demons Mack H. Webb Jr. Large Type edition

A story-time/advanced reader for the 3 to 6 year-old crowd. A father teaches a young boy how to deal with boredom in school and a host of distracting, fantastic creatures who get him in trouble. Full-color "manga"-style illustrations. Book Jacket reads: Danny grips the desk in his classroom with both hands, knuckles white from the effort. Every muscle in his body is tensed like a coil, ready to spring into action at the first chime of the class-ending bell. His eyes are riveted on the large clock mounted on the room's wall. Only a few minutes to go until class ends and his weekend begins. Ah, the weekend, the long-awaited, sweet weekend chock full of fun and leisure time will start in mere moments. Of a sudden, from the corner of his eye, Danny spies movement by a bookshelf. He risks a full-on glance and is shaken by what he sees. "Impossible.," he breathes. A bead of perspiration trickles down the side of Danny's face. This is in response to some odd new arrivals which have appeared in Danny's classroom. Odder still is it that it seems only he can see the strange visitors. To be sure it is a day Danny will not soon forget, the day he encounters the Detention Demons.
