This is the first book I have read in this series and it was terrific fun. Drake Doyle and Nell Fossey are 5th grade scientists who use reason and the scientific method to solve mysteries. Their solutions are based on scientific principles which are explained in the context of the story. Kids will really enjoy the humor and witty dialogue. This Science Detectives series would be a terrific read for kids who enjoy Junie B. Jones books. Science teachers will find these books to be fun read-alouds. There is also a section at the back of the book with experiments to demonstrate the science principles illustrated in the book.

The case of the Graveyard Ghost is a cool book it is mostly about Dolly and Fossy two dectives ade their dog and they read that their was a graveyard ghost. So they solved the mystery by listening to where the voice was comeing out of and it was coming from behind the shed and not out of the ghost mouth.Then a kid from their class brought a illeagle petto school. So they went to the pet store were he bought it and there was the rest them.And the man put them in a cage and they broke out and called the cops.

This book is not that scary. I thought it would be scarier by the picture on the cover with the ghost coming out from behind a gravestone and blood coming out of his mouth. I think this book should be a funny book because it already has some funny parts, but it's not scary at all. I expectd there to be some ghosts coming out everywhere and then disappearing again. I think maybe 5 or 4 year olds would like this book because it's not too scary and they wouldn't put it down and never want to read it again.
