What if calling your late grandpa for homework help connected you to Cleopatra instead?
When 12-year-old Max Rodriguez finds his late grandpa's glowing flip phone, he just wants help with fractions so he doesn't fail 6th grade. Instead, he accidentally dials the Afterlife Homework Hotline - and gets Cleopatra as his math tutor (who thinks 2+2=pyramid), Shakespeare on science (who believes plants grow by reciting sonnets), and a grammar-obsessed pirate who uses commas like treasure maps.
But every wrong answer from the ghosts starts leaking into the real world. Worksheets turn into obelisks. Bean plants grow quills. And Max's backpack becomes a trapezoid. If he doesn't fix it in 24 hours, the changes become permanent!
Now Max and his clever best friend Priya must team up with the ghosts and use real research skills to fact-check the dead before their whole school turns into a magical mess. Can they ace their tests and save Parent-Teacher Night?
The Afterlife Homework Hotline: How I Teamed Up with Ghosts to Ace My Tests and Save My School is a fun, fast-paced middle grade adventure full of humor, heart, and friendship. Perfect for fans of The Last Kids on Earth, Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library, and The Trials of Apollo.

- Funny ghost stories that aren't scary - School adventures with magic and mischief - Stories about teamwork, critical thinking, and friendship - Books that make learning (and research) feel excitingBook 1 in a brand-new series. If you've ever wished for magical homework help... be careful who you call!
