The Story Pirates Present: Digging Up Danger by Story Pirates, Jacqueline West, Hatem Aly

Eliza wants to be a ghost hunter.  Her mother is a biologist that specializes in plants.  She takes Eliza with her to work on identifying new plants that have been found.  The people she's working for are a bit weird but that's not the only weird thing going on...

Random House Books for Young Readers and Edelweiss allowed me to read this book for review (thank you).   It will be published January 15th.

This is an interesting mystery that's a bit scary.  The berries on one plant are dangerous.  If you eat one and the moonlight hits you, you turn into a dog!  While you're reading this mystery, they give you clues on how to write your own mystery, what questions you should answer in your story and more.  After your child enjoys this story, they can work on writing their own.

When Eliza and her mother put their talents together, they manage to solve this mystery and return life to normal.  I enjoyed the story.  And I like writing stories, too.
