The Mortification of Fovea Munson
Oh, The Embarrassment!
We were all twelve years old once. Nervous and uncomfortable in our own skin. Now – just imagine yourself as that awkward twelve year old and your parents own cadaver lab where they perform surgeries on dead bodies and try to explain that one to your peers. The Mortification of Fovea Munson is a funny and heartwarming tale about Fovea, her wacky parents and some talking heads.
Recommended for children 8 and up and written by the forever clever Mary Hinn Heider, The Mortification of Fovea Munson is equal parts sincere humor and a coming-of-age tale that you will love. I sure did.
Fovea = EYEBALL
“True, her parents own a cadaver lab where they perform surgeries on dead bodies. And yes, that makes her gross by association, at least according to everyone in seventh grade. And sure, Fovea’s stuck working at the lab now that her summer camp plans have fallen through. But she is by no means Dr. Frankenstein’s snuffling assistant! That is, until three disembodied heads, left to thaw in the wet lab, start talking. To her. Out loud. What seems like a nightmare, or bizarre hallucination, is not. Fovea is somebody’s Igor, all right. Three somebodies, actually. And they need a favor.”
Will Fovea help the talking heads with their favor? You’ll have to read the book to find out! Head over to Disney Books to learn more!
