Devon is a regular third-grader... well, sort of. Devon seems to have an awful lot of hair and a lot of big teeth. Principal Ernie worries that he has some king of "Weirdo kid werewolf" on his hands. Devon's friends insist that he is not a werewolf. "Then why does he only eat raw meat?" their teacher, Ms. Bogus, asks. "And why does he how at the moon?" Seems like there's some explaining to do - about how kids don't all develop in the same way? As for Devon, he just likes to sing and dance! My Life As A Third Grade Werewolf also includes: A discussion of why do we like monsters and what a "Wolf in Sheep's clothing?"
