Bookroo's summary

Ivy and Bean need ten dollars for a peculiar cheese craving. Their plan? Create a newspaper about Pancake Court. As they snoop around, they uncover surprising secrets. But what happens when their neighbors read the revelations? Join Ivy and Bean on a hilarious adventure where curiosity leads to unexpected discoveries and a bit of neighborhood chaos. Will their plan succeed, or will their nosiness land them in trouble?

From the publisher

Ivy and Bean need some money. Ten dollars, to be exact. Never mind what for. Okay, it’s for low-fat Belldeloon cheese in a special just-for you serving size. Don’t ask why. How are Ivy and Bean going to make ten dollars? Hey, maybe they should write a newspaper about Pancake Court and sell it! Great idea! And easy, too. All they have to do is snoop around the neighborhood. Wow…It’s very interesting what they can find out. It’s even more interesting when the neighbors read about it in the newspaper.
