Undead Ed / Rotterly Ghoulston / 206 pages / November Challenge Zombies

Yep, that is the author's name!  When Ed Bagley is hit by a truck on his thirteenth birthday and killed, he becomes a zombie because of a curse placed on his left arm as a result of an electrocution accident at a local circus.  He is initiated into the world of the undead - ghouls, ghosts, waifs, vampires, werewolves.  In fact, his DB, Death Buddy, is a werewolf.  Ed writes this book as lessons to us the living to explain what we have to look forward to.  Chased by his arm which has detached itself, Ed faces an assortment of the undead.  "It was absolutely, mind-meltingly disgusting."...And it had great illustrations.
