Fans of the PBS series, WISHBONE will love this book! Joe and Wishbone go to Florida to find pirate treasure!

If you like spooky stories, this book is for you!
A brother and sister get curious when their Dad won't let them go into the basement. Mom is away visiting a sick relative and they can't find the phone number to call her... and their Dad is acting stranger by the minute!

If you haven't read the books, seen the movies, or listened to the cds, what are you waiting for? Harry's adventures as a young wizard at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry are absolutely fantastic! Even if you have seen the movies, you should still read the books. There are many things in the books that they don't have time to include in the movies... 
 

No time to sit down and read? Are you stuck in the car a lot? Try Harry Potter on CD! Richer than the movie, and almost as good as reading the book itself. Most public libraries now offer books on tape and cd!

Nancy Drew Starter Set: Secret of Red Gate Farm, Secret of Shadow Ranch, Mystery at Lilac Inn, Bungalow Mystery, Hidden Staircase, Secret of the Old Clock
by Carolyn Keene

The perfect gift for the budding detective. I still love reading them! Nancy Drew is the classic juvenile mystery series...

In this newer Nancy Drew series, we get to see what little Nancy, at grammar school age, got into! A great spin on a cherished fictional character. In this book, Nancy signs up for a skating show and finds out someone had erased her name. In order to be able to skate, Nancy must figure out who did it!

Following the death of her grandfather, young Kit Tyler leaves Barbados to live with her aunt in Connecticut. The year is 1687 and the townsfolk are very suspicious of Kit, who is not exactly fitting in with her Puritan neighbors. This is not a mystery, but a good suspenseful tale nonetheless!
