(4.00 from 1 review)
The third-graders at Coyote Run Elementary thought the teacher's lounge is where teachers eat candy out of vending machines, watch TV and play video games. They didn't expect it to be a tropical island where they are kidnapped by pirates, a circus where they learn the flying trapeze, or a crime scene where they solve a jewelry heist.

Smashwords book reviews by Kathy Sattem Rygg

  • Priscilla the Great on Feb. 03, 2012

    This is a fun middle grade read. The premise is creative, and Priss is a strong character with an authentic voice. The cliffhanger at the end is a good twist leading into the next book.
