FOR USE IN SCHOOLS AND LIBRARIES ONLY. While traveling through Canada in 1678, a French priest came across the most gigantic waterfalls he'd ever seen. Stricken with both awe and fear, he began to shake, fell to his knees, and prayed. Ever since, people from all over the world have come to explore Niagara: among them the daredevils determined to tumble down or walk across the falls on tightrope. Kids will get a kick reading about the hare-brained stunts and will also learn how the falls were formed and how--one day--they will disappear.

Jeffrey Baker's got a problem, and his name is Robin Dessart. Robin, the new kid in Jeffrey's class, is a know-it-all and a bully. First, he gives all of Jeffrey's friends a hard time. Then he gives Jeffrey the chicken pox!Jeffrey knows that the only one who can stop Robin Dessart is Max, the third-grade ghost. Max's endless pranks should put Robin in his place once and for all. And Jeffrey's birthday party is coming up—the perfect day for revenge! But, as usual, Max has a few tricks of his own up his sleeve, and Robin isn't the only one in for a surprise. . . .

Max, the ghost, has never appeared to anybody but Jeffrey, so no one else believes he exists. But strange things have been happening lately that only the presence of a ghost could explain, and Jeffrey's friend Kenny is beginning to think that Max just might be real after all.When Max makes Kenny volunteer for the lead in the school play, Kenny is sure he's real. He desperately wants to meet Jeffrey's invisible friend, but Jeffrey can't promise anything—he knows how stubborn Max can be. Then Kenny loses his starring role, and it looks as if he doesn't have a ghost of a chance of getting it back without Max's help. . . .
