Months after his success at the BMX expo, Carlos is facing a lot of changes. Another Latino family has moved into town; his best friend RJ seems more interested in hanging out with the soccer team than Carlos; and the terrifying Mrs. Wynkle has roped him into directing the school spring play. Carlos and his co-director, Mark, are determined to make the most exciting play the school has seen, but they quickly learn that their creative visions may be at odds. As opening night looms closer, Carlos must juggle new friendships, old bullies, and an entire cast of zombies--all while trying not to let the spotlight of director get to his head. This second installment in the Carlos Gomez series is a classic "boy gets boy, boy loses boy, boy almost-probably gets boy back if he doesn't keep screwing up" story.
