Good Golly, It's Almost August!

Hey Detectives -

Can you believe it's almost August and we will be going back to school soon? I can't! I still have so many books to read!


Even though going back to school is exciting, it can be scary sometimes too.

I read some great books where the characters had to face some situations that were scary for them or made them nervous. Check them out for yourselves and see how you would handle things.



Scaredy Squirrel is afraid of everything!













Each of the characters in these chapter books face some challenging situations.

  21. Emily O. I read Bunnicula. The mystery starts at the movies when the family found a box in a seat that had a bunny (vampire) in it. I have to keep the rest a secret, but happy reading!
