One Legendary Lizard! One Curious Cache! One Cryptic Lake! 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???
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!
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.
