Description
Age range 8 to 12
The second entry in the slightly scary, extremely addictive contemporary middle-grade series from New York Times bestselling authors Lisi Harrison and Daniel Kraus – perfect for fans of scary stories for kids, like R. L. Stine's Goosebumps, or books for preteens, like Ann M. Martin's The Babysitters Club.
It's been a month since the events of 1-2-3-4, I Declare a Thumb War, when the Graveyard Girls — Gemma, Whisper, Sophie, Frannie, and Zuzu — discovered Silas Hoke's empty grave. A month, and no answers. That changes when messages from the other side start to creep up on the Graveyard Girls. Gemma's good-luck charm. The skull in Whisper's spilled milk. Sophie's vanishing phone. Frannie's theater curse. And Zuzu's possessed Journal. Who is trying to reach them...and why?
The good news: There might be one person with some answers. The bad news: She's a mortician...with a deadly secret.
Speaking of bad news, straight-A Sophie is quickly sliding down the scale to becoming a B-flat friend. She is spending way more time hanging out with 'Danger Me' and way less time with the Graveyard Girls and her schoolwork. Will her scary story be enough to win back her pals, or will her picture-perfect life become the ultimate photo bomb?
Fans of author Lisi Harrison's Monster High books will enjoy this new entry in the Graveyard Girls series of mystery books for kids. Anyone looking for scary books for 10-year-old girls will find exactly what they need in this thrilling sequel to 1-2-3-4, I Declare a Thumb War.
