About this listen

Stay calm and remain HAPPY. Help is on the way.

Perfect for fans of Gordon Korman and Jennifer L. Holm, this adventure-packed middle grade story, set in a world not too far from our own, follows a family that moves to a remote company town that seems perfect on the surface....

Keegan knows there’s something off about Happy Town.

The isolated, high-tech company town is too perfect—with a dome keeping out bad weather and self-driving vehicles rumbling throughout the town delivering residents to work and school. Still, Keegan is excited to grow his art skills at Happy Town’s ultra-modern middle school, even if he has less time to see his mom and stepdad because of their new jobs.

But when the two become obsessed with working and eating Happy Corp Meat Cramwich (the Microwaveable Sandwich Crammed with Meat) and Keegan gets sentenced to Mandatory Work Opportunities for refusing to follow Happy Town’s shady rules, he discovers a dangerous glitch in the system that’s turning the town’s happy residents into zombies. Carnivorous, meat-craving, literal zombies. With his new friends Gloriana and Tank by his side, he’ll need to find a way to destroy Happy Town’s happy system—before there’s nothing left.

This is my book of the year!

It seems like a standard YA book set in a company town- an amazing lesson in itself. Then it takes a wild turn and the adventure starts.
Every kid who has ever moved because their parent has a new job will relate to this book.
There are nuggets of wisdom and grace and hope, and reality checks throughout the story of three remarkable- yet average- middle grade kids.
I got a lot out of this book, so don’t confine this to YA. It’s worth the read for adults, too. Then it takes actor who read this is excellent, giving each character real definition.
Again, my book of the year. Thank you Greg Van Eekhout!
