Skateboard Your Way into This Groovy Mystery!

We find the gang trying to spend the day at Pollywog Park, having a nice break from their most recent mystery...but are they in for a surprise when Scooby & Shaggy are mistaken for the judges of a skateboard competition at the newly opened skate park. As usual, hi-jinks and hilarity (and snacks) ensue...you'll have to read to find out how the gang solves the mystery of the Scary Skateboarder!! All of the books in the Scooby-Doo Mysteries series follow the same formula as the popular series rerunning on Cartoon Network...so kids familiar with the cartoon will enjoy the books, as they play out the same way. These are longer chapter books (compared to the Level 2 Scooby-Doo Readers, which are much shorter and more simplistic). Beginner readers, who are up to easy chapter books, will enjoy the titles in the series, especially if they are already Scooby fans! These even have illustrations to help bring the story to life for the reader, so they are the easier chapter books, with pictures, not just words...kind of in the transition from picture books to all words, great for encouraging readers to read longer books with more complex plots, but not overly difficult. I'd say these are just the right mix if your reader is ready to leave the Level 2's behind, but not yet ready to make the leap to words only chapter books.
