Freaky Sleepover (Monstrous Maud) by AB Saddlewick

Maud Montague is settling in to life at Rotwood Towers, a school for monsters.  She is human but loves everything that is not pink and girly, and fits right in.

Her oh so perfect pink and girly twin Milly is having a sleepover with her friends from her school Primrose Towers while their parents open the first night of Dracula at the local theatre.  After being taunted by Milly about having no friends of her own Maud ends up inviting her friends half vampire Paprika, the invisible girl Isabel and not so friendly witch Poisonous Penelope.  And she's also looking after the school hamster Violet who turns out to be a bit more than the fluffy creature she appears to be.

Can Maud survive this night without getting in trouble with her sister, friends and baby sitter?! Great fun, a good quick read.

Big Fright (Monstrous Maud) by A B Saddlewick

Maud Montague is the polar opposite to her oh so perfect twin Milly.  Milly likes pink, ballet and girly stuff and puts everything away perfectly in her lilac chest of drawers.  Maud loves her scruffy pet rat Quentin, is messy and disorganised and prefers black and bats.  And she's always in trouble at school at Primrose Towers. 

When Quentin escapes during show and tell perfectly tidy headmistress Mrs Fennel has had enough and orders for Maud to be transferred to Rotwood School.  There Maud finds herself surrounded by monsters, literally.  Can she hide the fact that she is only human, not vampire, invisible or werewolf like her new friends?  Can she scare her new teacher, vampire Mr von Bat?  And who is the scary headmistress everyone is so scared of?

Great fun for any girl who wants more than pink and fluffy, Maud is a wonderful alternative heroine
