Publisher's Synopsis
Scout has a circus for a family, and an elephant living in his backyard. Ellie has her own cottage, convertible car, and a way of stampeding chaotic fun into every thing she does. Ellie is such a crazy creature, she even laughs her way through Haunted Halloween Houses. Sheesh, as if she isn't already a menace to be around, now she wants to turn the family house into a place of horror. Scout has to hide his fear of undead creatures, and howling monsters by helping with the family Haunted House. Once again, he is being corralled into assisting Ellie in her quest for wild merriment and dangerous laughter. The Scout and Ellie series is meant for seven to nine year olds who are into laughing. In the background are friends, family, and imagination. The author is truly concerned that kids may grow up wanting to have as much joy as Ellie does every day.
