Summary
Julia Jekyll, the top student at the eccentric Rocket Academy, inadvertently transforms into a creature known as Harriet Hyde after drinking a sabotaged potion. The academy is run by Memphis Rocket, a 1960s counterculture throwback, and his elderly mother. Julia’s academic excellence makes her a target for the school bullies, Sharon and Nicola Blister, who secretly tamper with her science‑class experiment. As a result, Julia becomes Harriet Hyde, a large, hairy, intimidating yet essentially harmless beast.
Unaware that Julia and Harriet are the same person, the school reacts with alarm whenever Harriet appears. Julia must work constantly to conceal her dual identity, a task complicated by the fact that her transformations occur without warning and are impossible to control.
