Carole Marsh
The Creepy Campout Girl Scout Mystery
Paperback
(Carole Marsh Mysteries May 19, 2015)
, First edition
Seriously, what’s more fun than camping out?! Sleeping under the stars? Roasting hot dogs over an open fire? Biting into ooey-gooey s’mores? Telling ghost stories in the moonlight? Waking up to a magnificent sunrise coming over the horizon?
When you read this book, you’ll join a group of Girl Scouts on a spooky, spirited romp in the great outdoors. Besides having loads of fun, the girls in this story learn a lot about independence, trying new things, getting along with others, and surviving when away from the comforts of home.
You’ll learn those same lessons when you’re camping out. And be assured that those experiences will turn into valuable nuggets of wisdom you and every other Girl Scout will take with you along the journey of life!
So, settle into a comfortable chair and join our Girl Scouts as they get outside, get to work, get challenged, and giggle a LOT in the Creepy Campout Mystery!
One Legendary Lizard, One Curious Cache, One Cryptic Lake, and Two Dastardly Dudes equals one ominous outdoor adventure. Ella and her friend Kiara are excited about a weekend Girl Scout campout with big sister Avery and her friend Pari. But when Ella’s sash goes missing shortly after their arrival, Ella becomes suspicious. Who took it? Was it another camper, or someone (or something!) else? Soon, the girls are drawn into an even greater mystery involving a mysterious madam, a ludicrous legend, and even a freaky, five-legged frog! What’s really going on at Cryptic Lake???
Like all of Carole Marsh's Mysteries, this mystery incorporates history, geography, culture and cliffhanger chapters that will keep kids begging for more! This mystery includes SAT words, educational facts, fun and humor. The Creepy Campout Girl Scout Mystery also includes a built-in book club that includes Talk About It, Bring It To Life, a Scavenger Hunt and a Girl Scout Glossary.
