Skylar Robbins: The Mystery of the Island Idol (Skylar Robbins mysteries Book 5)
by Carrie Cross
(25 Reviews)
Genre: Children’s eBooks
I opened the slam book and started to read.
Bastiian is having a party next Friday night. Anyone welcome at 3 Palms at 10 is invited. Free food, no parents, and we’re playing My Secret Kiss. Who’s going?
And there was a list of names. Daniel Gannon’s was on it.
My Assistant Detective Alexa pointed at a spot three-quarters down the page. “Sky. A boy-girl party and Daniel’s going. Brendan and Dustin signed the list too. We have to go.”
“Alexa, what’s My Secret Kiss?”
She lowered her voice. “Everyone secretly draws names picking who they have to kiss. Then everyone rates the person they kissed. The bad kissers with the least points get eliminated.”
“No way.” My mind was racing. The disgusting possibilities were endless. Would I be forced to make out with boys I didn’t like, or guys I didn’t even know, just to act normal at a party? Was I crazy for even considering going?
My brain started to tick. I’d paid for some new gadgets with chores money, and I’d gotten others for Christmas. These filled out my detective kit nicely. My night vision goggles might come in handy. The Soundtrap would let us eavesdrop on conversations. Best of all was a canister of Invisi-powder. When you dusted it on your face and hands and wore black clothing, the non-metallic, gray-black powder let you blend into the shadows, so you were completely invisible.
“There is a way,” I said, smiling confidently. “We are going to go to that party. But nobody’s even going to know we’re there.”
Sneaking into the party sounded risky, and pretty scary. But it wasn’t until after it was over and the field trip began, that I really found out the true meaning of terror and danger.

Gwendolyn’s Revenge: A Skylar Robbins Fantasy Novella (Skylar Robbins mysteries Book 4)
by Carrie Cross
(20 Reviews)
Genre: Children’s eBooks
An eighth-grade bully named Gwendolyn opened her witchcraft box and looked at the nest of hair she had stolen from her cousin Skylar Robbins’s brush. She planned to use the teen sleuth’s locks in a revenge spell: Maybe giving Skylar a giant patch of hairy warts. A year of horrendous dog breath. And loud, unstoppable farts whenever Skylar was around a cute boy! Unfortunately, Gwendolyn had skimmed the instructions, and missed a very important step.
With the help of a friendly wizard, Gwendolyn also performed a beautifying spell on herself. But she ignored the old wizard’s warning: “Don’t let your ego turn you nasty. Or the spell will slowly reverse. Or worse.”
By the time school started, Gwendolyn had turned pretty — on the outside. In English, a classmate began his presentation and his nerves got the best of him. After the first paragraph, he stumbled, stopped, and went silent. “I lost my place,” Rudy admitted, fumbling with his notes, and Gwendolyn laughed loudly.
The boy sitting next to her and one row up turned around and gaped at her. “Wow. Nasty,” he mumbled.
“And?” Gwendolyn snapped. Then she shouted, “Ouch!” grabbing her thigh as a splotch of hairy warts exploded painfully onto her skin. A stinky mist burst into the room.
“Ugh!” Ken King exclaimed suddenly, staring at Gwendolyn. “No way — are those turd farts coming out of you?”
“What are you talking about?” she retorted. “I’m not farting,” she said weakly. Gwendolyn did, in fact, feel particularly gassy.
“Or is that your breath?” Rock asked. He covered his nose and mouth and gagged. “It smells like — horrendous dog breath!”
What?! Gwen cupped her hand over her mouth, hoped no one was looking, and huffed hotly into her palm. Sniffed it and almost fell off her chair in disgust. OMG. She gasped. That smells disgusting. It does smell like horrendous dog breath!
Oh, no, she thought. This can’t be happening.
Gwendolyn’s Revenge is a fantasy novella that is a standalone read, and a mini-sequel to Skylar Robbins: The Mystery of Shadow Hills.
