Time is running out. At the last minute, the girls are asked to clean a giant, old-and possibly haunted-house. The job will pay exactly what they need. But what they find inside may keep them trapped there . . . forever. This series of short 60- to 70-page novels was designed to engage a broad spectrum of striving readers.

Science fiction, sports, paranormal, realistic life, historical fiction, and fantasy are just a few of the many genres. Books are no higher than a 1.5 reading level, with illustrations on every spread that support visual literacy and draw kids into the text.
