In this heartwarming and hilarious reimagining of The
Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, a secret potion accidentally
turns eager-to-please eighth grader Jaclyn into Jackie, a
goblin-like monster who’ll do anything to win at everything she does—no matter
how much chaos she creates along the way.
Jaclyn Hyde is almost perfect. Whether she’s baking cookies
for her classmates, building a replica Mt. Vesuvius for the science fair, or
practicing her lines for Fog Island: The Musical, she almost
never makes mistakes. When she discovers the last batch of perfection potion in
an abandoned laboratory, Jaclyn decides that being almost perfect
isn’t perfect enough anymore.
But Jaclyn quickly discovers that the potion turns her into
Jackie, a goblin-like monster who’ll do anything to make sure Jaclyn comes out
on top. Suddenly, she’s wreaking havoc on the school play, stealing someone
else’s brownies to pass off as her own, and that’s just the beginning. If
Jaclyn wants to save her school, her friends, and herself from her perfectly
horrifying alter-ego, she’s going to have to screw up her courage and risk it
all—even if that means admitting that she never was as perfect as she seemed.
