Stone Me - This hilarious and informative story presents a modern-day spin on the ancient Greek myth of Medusa as well as an insightful look into school life and student/teacher relations.

Their suspicions quickly turn to concern as they witness several of their classmates getting turned to stone, and when none of their teachers seem to notice, the duo decides to take action and stop the 21st-century Medusa.
