From the creators of the award-winning Three-Ring Rascals and 43 Old Cemetery Road series! Is the sweet town of Appleton ripe for scandal? Consider the facts: Appleton Elementary School has a new librarian named Rita B. Danjerous. (Say it fast.) Principal Noah Memree barely remembers hiring her. Ten-year-old Reid Durr is staying up way too late reading a book from Ms. Danjerous's controversial "green dot" collection. The new school board president has mandated a student dress code that includes white gloves and bow ties available only at her shop. Sound strange? Fret not.

Review quotes

"Another pun-tastic outing from the Sisters Klise."
—Booklist
Kate Klise
Kate Klise and illustrator M. Sarah Klise are sisters who began making books together as children in the bedroom they shared in Peoria, Illinois. Their home was always filled with paper, art supplies, and cats, most of whom arrived as strays and quickly became beloved members of the Klise family. Since then, Kate and M. Sarah Klise have created more than thirty books for young readers, many inspired by animals. Kate's books for Feiwel and Friends include Mystery on Magnolia Circle, Grounded, Homesick, and Stay: A Girl, a Dog, a Bucket List, also illustrated by M. Sarah Klise.
