Hi again! Sorry about last week. But hey, cat memes fix everything, riiiiiiiiight?
Ha.
So here’s your review.
I hope you’re used to the huge book cover images by now.
Curiosity House- The Shrunken Head
Thomas, Phillipa, and Sam- three kids with strange abilities- live in Dumfrey’s Dime Museum of Freaks, Oddities, and Wonders, where weird objects from around the globe are housed, and where other strange people perform. But when Max, a knife-thrower who’s lived on the streets for almost her entire life, arrives there, a frightening series of events is set off. The newest attraction, the Amazonian shrunken head, has gone missing, and in it’s wake, many gruesome murders have been committed. Can the kids and performers solve the mystery and retrieve the shrunken head?
This was a very inventive book. Great illustrations, too!
Also, for those of you who have read this…isn’t Phillipa a whole lot like Lydia Deates (forgive me if I spelled that wrong) from Beetlejuice ?
She kinda dresses like her, too.
So yeah. Enjoy what’s left of summer, guys!
