The Worst Night Ever, by Dave Barry:
A Komodo dragon, killer ants, and twin high school bullies are no match for my sister, Taylor, and me in young adult comic thriller THE WORST NIGHT EVER, second in the Worst Ever series. This animal-ridden adventure begins when the Bevins brothers kidnap my friend’s ferret and threaten to feed him to their pet python. During a daring rescue, I discover strange goings-on in the Bevinses’ backyard. Once we realize the Bevinses plan to loose dangerous animals next to Miami-Dade Zoo during its Killer Critters Halloween Bash, it’s up to Taylor and 14-year-old me, Wyatt Palmer, to save the day.
