Wow! Where has the time gone? Books that I have over the Winter Holidays.
Al Capone Shines My Shoes--The Alcatraz kids are into another adventure...there problems with friendships, problems with families, and an escape...join in the adventures, and "How much is Al Capone really involved?"
From convicts to kid lawyers the next book is Theodore Boone: Kid Lawyer. Theo is the child of two lawyers, and his favorite past-time is watching court cases. The kids in his school seek his help with anything from doggie jail, to divorce cases, to murder. If you want to get an idea of how court cases really work, you will want to give this book a try.
The last book is the Ghost of Crutchfield Hall. Is it possible to come back to life? That is the main question in this book. A good story, a different twists with ghosts, and likeable characters (well, not all of them), make this a good story.
