Persuading his parents to send him to America, John arrives at the Junior Success Boarding School in Salem, Massachusetts. But once there, he finds himself to be something of an outcast. And he is also convinced that his homeroom teacher really has it in for him. Worse, he's convinced that's she's really a witch. <p/>Fortunately, John is able to find one kindred spirit at school with whom he's able to form an alliance--another misfit named Anna, who also happens to have her own developing magical powers. John recruits Anna in his efforts to uncover the truth about Ms. Kayla and expose the Meanest Teacher's real identity to the world. <p/>Joined by a friendly demon named Etrigan, these two amateur sleuths will uncover clues and stumble upon forces beyond their control in a humorous series of misadventures.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Ryan North is the writer responsible for <i>Dinosaur Comics</i>, the Eisner and Harvey award-winning <i>Adventure Time </i>comics, the #1 bestselling anthology series <i>Machine of Death</i>, and the <i>New York Times</i> bestselling and Eisner-Award winning <i>Unbeatable Squirrel Girl</i> series for Marvel.
