Описание: Fourteen-year-old Chris Nesbit is miserable when her family moves away from Milwaukee to a small town in Iowa, where her father has accepted the job as the local paper's new editor.Her little brother, Philip, doesn't seem bothered a bit as he announces to the family that Iowa is "tornado country" ... and he can't wait to see one.The first night in their new house in the suburbs, Chris is awakened by a sound and happens to see the silhouette of a tall man in her room, walking out her bedroom door. Too frightened to scream, she waits till morning to tell her parents, but they don't believe her.Chris is curious about the unexplored root cellar in the family's basement, all boarded up and covered with a curtain. She's dying to know what's inside it, but her mother says the cellar is off limits, even though none of them has even seen it.Then Chris meets Wendy Young and Wendy's cute older brother Skip, who live across the street. She agrees to join Wendy's club, the P.E.D. (Private Eye Detectives), and together they attempt to solve their first mystery surrounding the Nesbits' eccentric next-door neighbor, Mr. North.Not convinced that the strange-looking neighbor man deserves to be Wendy's suspect, "Mr. X," Chris at least will go along with the game. That is, until Pamela and Herbert Caldwell enter the picture.These two overly friendly adults from the West Coast are interested in the Nesbits' house for genealogy purposes, yet the girls sense that there is something more on their agenda and that they are using a cover story to gain access to the Nesbits' new house.Not only do night noises in the house continue, keeping Chris awake and a nervous wreck, but the girls discover a gold watch on the floor of the root cellar on the afternoon that they manage to sneak in for a quick look. Unfortunately, their exploring "mission" is cut short when Mrs. Nesbit comes home and chews them out for going into the cellar.The Root Cellar Mystery is for young teens and is based on actual "activities" from the author's childhood. Chris learns that it's not wise to judge somebody based on a first glimpse, without knowing anything about their character. She also learns that moving away from your friends and meeting new people can be a good thing, especially when you get to be a Private Eye and the boy across the street really likes you.

Описание: "We've got to alert the police," said Tim."Not so fast." A deep, husky voice called out to them from the shadows. B.J. and another, larger man stepped out and confronted Annette and Tim. The larger man had a black beard and wore a stocking hat. In his hand was a large switchblade which he thrust at them."She's the one got me into trouble," B.J. said in an agitated voice."Well, she's gonna be no trouble from now on," snarled the large man as he closed the distance between them.The Valentines Dance, where the girls ask the boys, is coming up and Annette knows that Pete is expecting her to ask him, yet she wants to ask Penny's brother Tim instead.Everyone is tired of winter and hoping the ground hog won't see his shadow.Meanwhile, look out Livestock rustlers are in the area.Also, Ruby's nightmares are growing worse, causing the Vetter family some concern. Stranger yet, her dreams seem to have this weird connection to a "Missing in Action" American pilot in Vietnam.Annette is still enraptured with having a new brother and sister as she grows weary of an especially hard long winter in Wisconsin. Her infatuation for Tim has grown as her best friend Penny can no longer hide the fact that she and Annette's boyfriend Pete are hot for each other. But how can Annette, a mere sophomore, compete with all the more mature juniors and senior girls at Ravensville High who consider Tim a heart throb? As the Valentines Dance gets closer and she still hasn't asked Pete, another controversy erupts in the county as livestock rustlers steal animals from people she knows. Will the Vetter farm be their next target?
