The Chronicles of the Monster Detective Agency

The adventure begins with volume one :

And then continues in the next volume :

As the inaugural title in the Chronicles of the Monster Detective Agency series, Will Allen and the Great Monster Detective (ISBN: 978-0-9789512-0-7, $5.95), tells the tale of a clever but timid boy whose fears have literally come to life, and how, with some very special help, he learns to conquer them. Targeted at readers who already enjoy Bailey School Kids, The Magic Tree House, and Goosebumps books, this humorous mix of Ghostbusters and Monsters Inc. is more than just a spooky, yet whimsical fantasy.  It also adds a new tool for helping children overcome anxieties by metaphorically providing young readers with a model for confronting their own fears. But just because it has a message, that doesn’t mean it’s not loads of fun to read. In its review, Bookviews.com called the book, Wildly entertaining…Funny from first page to last!”

Volume 1 - The Simplest Solutions

In this first episode we meet young Will (please don't call me Hiram) Stanley, a boy with a keen mind and a fire in his belly.  Too much of a fire, as it turns out, for either of his parents to deal wtih him, especially now that they are embroiled in a messy divorce.  His adventures take him from a small New York apartment to a posh New England estate.  But escaping the bitterness of his conflicted family isn't the cure-all that he expects it to be.
