Stay calm and remain HAPPY. Help is on the way. The Stepford Wives meets Gordon Korman in Greg van Eekhout’s latest adventure-packed middle grade stand-alone about 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 begins to notice cracks in the not-so-perfect society billionaire Arlo Corn has built. And with his new friends, Gloriana and Tank, by his side, he faces a threat that reveals the sinister inner workings of the company.

From Greg van Eekhout comes a dystopian middle grade adventure set in a world not too far from our own.
