Pearl is a bit of a snob, she isn’t very nice to the other
students, she thinks school is boring and craves excitement. After being given
a story telling assignment, her classmate Rocky discovers a scroll about pirate
treasure. The students are excited but worried about ghosts. Pearl is
determined, and even has some adventures on her own, which, thanks to her attitude,
no one believes her about. Will she learn a lesson about friendship and helping
others and be rewarded?
This series is growing on me just a bit, and its very popular
with students. I think this book is one of my favorites so far, it includes
some life lessons, students creating stories, pirates, and ghosts. Who wouldn't love that? This one
refers to small things from the earlier books, so its not great as a
stand-alone.
