Customer Reviews

A really great read!!

This is the first book of the eight book series. Two twins, Robbie and Beka, died in the 1940's and they have continued to "haunt" the house they lived in all of those years ago. No one would move into the house because of the haunting rumours, and Robbie and Beka were fine with that. But, things stir up when Scott, Kim, and their dad use the house for a vacationing spot. So what is this mystery at Kickingbird Lake and why must Robbie and Beka return there every so often? And what does Scott find that Robbie is determined to have? This is a really great read for middle grade readers on up. I really enjoyed it and could not put it down.

Very Interesting

Rebecca, Robbie and their dog Thatch are 11-year old ghosts who died 50 years ago. When Mr. Shook moves his daughter "Kim", son "Scott" and their cat "Smudge" into the twins house - the fun begins. You will laugh when the twins practice their haunting skills on Kim & Scott, and sit on the edge of your seat when someone needs rescued. It's fun to listen in on the twins conversations on the items Kim & Scott brought with them, that we take for granted but that someone living 50 years ago hasn't seen. The fun continues as they try to help Kim solve the mystery of the treasure at Kickingbird Lake. This book is interesting, suspenseful, and funny. I was helping my 9-year old son with his book report and found myself sitting down to read the entire book. I'm looking forward to reading the next book.

the whole book you want to find out how they died.

this was a good boo
