Publisher: INtense Publications LLC
Mrs. P. and her students return to school from their holiday break only to find more pranksters on the loose in her classroom. Mrs. P. is pranked with a hologram of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the Ghost of Avery Middle School and with the mother of them all--her keys mysteriously disappear for weeks. Ella, Lennox, Stella and Austin team up to investigate and uncover the identity of the secret prankster who is constantly disrupting Mrs. P.’s class.
Short excerpts
“Class, watch carefully because the next eruption will be spectacular. This volcano model will demonstrate the Phreatomagmatic eruption, which produces lava and is very explosive,” Mrs. P. warned. “I ask you to please stay in your seats during this experiment.”
Memories of Mrs. P.’s hair on fire from a chemistry experiment gone wrong flashed through her mind. Mrs. P. moved toward the third model and took a slow, deep breath as she lit the fuse at the base. She closed her eyes for a second, waiting for the large, tall volcano model with a wide mouth to explode.
“It’s getting ready to erupt. These volcanoes erupt due to water and magma interacting,” Mrs. P. warned.
All of the student's eyes were glued to the volcano. The room became quiet, still before the storm. Without any warning, the volcano exploded with a loud, thunderous noise, which could be heard from three classrooms down. Something shiny and metallic flew out of the mouth. Massive amounts of lava spewed and spilled all over the place.
“What a sham,” Stella whispered to Lennox, Austin, and Emma.
“You’re telling me,” Lennox replied.
“Are we the only ones who know the truth?” Emma whispered.
“Preston, Tristan, and Mason know, but I guess the other classmates think he hung the moon,” Austin said.
“And now’s not the time to tell them,” Stella whispered back.
