About The Book

Webster is a bundle of nerves headed into his first day of high school, but whatever academic and social horrors he feared are nothing compared to what’s in store for him as he stumbles into an unsanctioned, street-level spelling bee! And this ain't no staged production, either—letters fly like jump kicks and the losers leave bruised and beaten more often than not! Soon he’s propelled into the fast-paced world of competitive spelling by the mysterious Outlaw King and his cohort the Black Queen. Does Webster have what it takes to get the spelling world buzzing? Find out in this word-based battle royale from web-sensations Ananth Panagariya (JOHNNY WANDER) and Tessa Stone (HANNA IS NOT A BOY’S NAME)!

About The Illustrator

Tess Stone is a fan of comedy, horror, and really bright colors. He often tries to smash them all into one horrendously delightful package either in terms of writing or drawing. Or both. He also really enjoys sloths because they take life slowly and he's very jealous.
