What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

From popular A to Z Mysteries author Ron Roy comes a red, white, and blue mystery perfect for the election season! In the twelfth book of the Capital Mysteries–an early chapter book mystery series featuring fun facts and famous sites from Washington, D.C.–a legend says that on a dead president’s birthday, his ghost haunts the famous retreat, Camp David. KC and Marshall are going there on October 14, President Eisenhower’s birthday. They aren’t worried, until strange things start happening. How did a bat get trapped in their cabin? Why is there blood-red dirt in the trunk by the couch? And what is making the weird thumping noise? It’s not Eisenhower’s ghost…is it? Each book highlights one of the famous museums, buildings, or monuments from the Washington area and includes a map and a two-page fun fact spread with photographs. Parents, teachers, and librarians agree that these highly collectible chapter books are perfect for emerging readers and any kid who love mysteries!
