Cryptid Academy 2: What We're Made Of

Winter is on its way at Collinstein Academy, but the students there don't mind. The djinn can make flames to warm everyone up, the sasquatches and ariels have plenty of fur for heat, and the rest of the mythical creatures find their own way in the cold weather.

Instead, the students are thinking about the same things that any other student thinks about: making friends, working on big projects, dealing with bullies, and even falling in love.

Emmett the golem is worrying about all of that, plus his clay skin is reacting to the weather in some funny ways. Add that to dealing with Shane, the bully, and Emmett and his friends are going to need to show what they are made of.

Since 2005, Howard has been teaching at a public middle school -- briefly in Fairfax, VA and mostly in Lexington, MA. He started teaching Social Studies, but now he teaches teachers and students how to use technology to learn.

Writing has always been a way for him to open the release valve in my brain, whether it was poetry in high school and college, press releases immediately afterwards, non-fiction and memoir for a while once he became a father, and now he has entered the exciting world of MG and YA Speculative Fiction/Fantasy
