In the aftermath, Jody’s father must stay behind as the rest of the family is evacuated, and Jody promises him she will keep everyone together. But things are hard in San Francisco, where she feels like an outsider. Worse, her mother has become depressed, and Jody worries she and her sister will have to go to an orphanage.

    $18.99

    Home Alone meets A Night in the Museum in this clever middle-grade heist story by USA
    Today bestselling author Jenni L. Walsh.

Inspired by true events, this STEM-based adventure is perfect for fans of hijinks and mysteries.

    The investor meeting is a week away, but there’s a big problem: Liberty has reason to suspect there’s going to be a “buglary” of the museum’s rarest animals. But the police don’t believe her, and with Dad out of town for an insect convention, it’s up to Liberty and her friends (and her vast knowledge of bug defense mechanisms) to thwart the thieves and save the museum.
