Tales from the multiverse, volume two

"Here are six thrilling stories -- ranging from sci-fi to fantasy to adventure -- set in six different worlds, featuring artwork from six different illustrators. In a swanky New York City hotel, a reclusive guest appears to have spontaneously combusted. On a school field trip to a human anatomy museum in space, two kids try to pull off the greatest prank in history. Somewhere on a deserted island, three siblings try to make a life for themselves after the rest of the planet has been decimated by gigantic rock monsters. And then there's the small, quaint fishing town where a boy visiting his sister stumbles across an ancient curse; the traveling circus where a young girl becomes the assistant to a death-defying human cannonball; and the rugged wilderness where one kid with superpowers just can't seem to find some peace."--, Adapted from front jacket flap and Amazon
