5 y separately published work icon Creeped Out Zana Fraillon , ( trans. Michael Kohlhammer with title Angriff Der Monster ) Stuttgart : Kosmos , 2013 Z1676862 2011 single work children's fiction children's 'Jasper and his friends are about to take on their biggest challenge. They have to find a monster that has been set loose somewhere in the Monstrum House school grounds ... before it finds them. If they fail, they'll have their creepy teacher Stenka to answer to. Or perhaps they'll be eaten by the monster. It's hard to know which is worse. And you thought your school was bad.' (From the publisher's website.)
2 y separately published work icon Sucked Under Zana Fraillon , ( trans. Michael Kohlhammer with title Bestie aus der Tiefe ) Stuttgart : Kosmos , 2013 21964659 2010 single work children's fiction children's

'Jasper might be in over his head once again as he's given two equally horrifying options—fail all his classes and face his teacher's punishment, or pass and have to face a terrifying lake monster instead!

'Jasper McPhee pulled himself over the top of the icy wall. He landed lightly on his bare feet and rolled across the snowy ground, just dodging the swinging blades that whooshed from the tree tops. That was close, he thought. He shot a quick look at his watch. He had two minutes left to finish the combat course. He might just make it.

'It's exam time at Monstrum House, and the top students in Jasper's year will be rewarded. They'll get to hunt a monster that lives at the bottom of the lake and likes to drown people for fun—so, maybe it's just as well that Jasper hasn't studied. Life's never easy when you're a student at the Monstrum house.'

'Jasper McPhee is always getting into trouble. That's why he's been sent to the Monstrum House School for Troubled Children. But there's something very strange about Monstrum House. For a start, the students have to stand barefoot in the snow every day. There's also the creepy feeling that the teachers can read your thoughts. Oh, and the fact that the school is crawling with monsters. Jasper has never been in trouble like this.'  (Publication summary)

'On a fateful day in Hills End, a timber-milling town in the mountains of Victoria, seven children and their teacher set off to explore caves in the nearby mountains said to contain ancient Aboriginal rock art. While they are deep inside the mountain caves a storm of tremendous violence all but sweeps the town away and threatens to leave them stranded on the mountain.

'Tackling flooded creeks and washed out paths and fallen trees, the children make their way back to Hills End injured and exhausted, only to face a new battle to survive in the denuded town. ' (Publication summary)
