BLURB:
Halloween is here and Lexie, Bella and Maddie couldn’t be happier. But why does everything feel so different? Fewer houses are decorated and fewer kids are out trick-or-treating. Still, that’s not going to stop the three girls from eating as much candy as they can before their parents can stop them, even if that means fighting each other for it.
When they finally discover a haunted house worthy of their favorite holiday, they forget their parents’ warnings and go in alone, only to discover that the house really is haunted, and not only that, but they’ve been transported to a whole different world!
A dying Sugar Fairy in one of the abandoned rooms send them on a quest to find her Sugar Baby and the magic Sugar Flower in order to save her and Halloween. If they fail, Halloween will be gone forever, and they’ll never return to their family.
But with Sugar Bug attacks, the Cavity Caves where they must face their deepest fears, and giant gummy bears armed with candy cane swords, the girls aren’t sure they’ll make it.
Their only chance is to work together, using each of their strengths to help each other. Can they stop fighting over candy long enough? Or will they be trapped in the dying Sugar Land forever?
My review:
The Lost Kids books are all fun children’s stories about facing your fears, doing the right thing and working together. In the latest adventure of The Three Lost Kids, Maddie, Bella and Lexie must stop arguing long enough to rescue the Sugar Fairy’s baby and restore the magic of Halloween. I loved reading about how the girls out-smarted the Sugar Bugs and the Gummy Bear Giants. And maybe they even out-smarted Mom at the end. 😉
The Three Lost Kids and the Death of the Sugar Fairy is just scary enough to be fun for elementary-age kids, and is fun enough for Mom and Dad to read as a bedtime story (okay, maybe not bedtime) and not get bored.
