Lexie and her friends (who include an English zombie called Mary, a very quiet ghost called Boo and a fierce skeleton called Bebe) are super excited about Halloween this year - after all, where better to spend it than at Camp Croak, spookiest holiday camp EVER? And the arrival of two new Ghost Scouts is the icing on the cake - until Lexie accepts a dare from one of them, and a rogue spell is cast ... does this mean the end of Halloween? And could it be the evil Euphemia Vile behind the chaos that ensues? With a lot of runny noses, the Ghost Scouts show that they can again band together and enjoy the party!
TAYLOR DOLAN was born into a house of stories and raised in Texas. Her mother used to read to her every night, and together they made their way through the worlds of Narnia, Oz and many more. Sometimes, when Taylor is feeling blue, her mother stills reads to her and does the best voices for all the characters.
Being a happy book nerd, she attended the Cambridge School of Art for her Master's Degree in Children's Book Illustration. She was overjoyed to find a whole herd of booknerds to spend time quality time reading quietly together with. She now lives in Arkansas, US, while using her imagination to pretend she still lives in Cambridge.

In a booky world where many publishers are playing it solid and safe, Taylor Dolan is a breath of fresh air. I would give this series five stars out of five and say to you, go and crack open your kid's head (in a good way) and give the contents a stir. Y'all will thank me for it. * SNORT! Blog *
This is a wild and wicked experience. It will pick you up with one hand and tickle you with the other, whilst dragging you through page after page of horrible but hilarious morsels. It's dark humour for adventurous beginners - and like a bungee jump into the bayou, it'll dip your head deep into a supernatural soup of a rather silly temperature. * SNORT! blog *
