Description

After sleeping off his adventure battling the evil Nightcrawlers, Speed Bump joins Slingshot on a quest to earn their Scavenger Hunt badge. Once they complete their last challenge, they'll no longer be Bird Scouts--they'll be Eagle Scouts! But, as is always the case with these two birds, their adventure turns into a misadventure when they end up at a shopping mall--fun by day, scary by night! Trapped inside, what crazy scheme will they come up with to get out?

Here's the much anticipated second book in this fun new chapter book series.

Reviews

Night of the Living Shadows:
"Overall a lighter-than-air escapade with just a light wash of satire." —Kirkus Reviews

“This misadventure from a bird’s perspective is hilarious, light, and clever and may provide fun reading and anew favorite.” —Children's Literature

Night of the Living Worms:

"Both [pictures and text] are liberally festooned with gags, sight gags, . . . and puns." —Kirkus Reviews

“Coverly's drawings are full of visual jokes, and the narrative is packed with playful language. . . .Clever, imaginative, and precisely targeted to its audience, this new series is sure to please.” —Booklist

"Filled with subtle irony, wordplay, and gentle pokes at life, the text is accompanied by appealingly large, cartoon-style, black-and-white line drawings. VERDICT This story will have students laughing out loud and reluctant readers asking for the sequel." —School Library Journal
