Scooby Doo Ghost School

Scooby-Doo! Picture Clue Books #17

by Robin Wasserman

The Picture Clue books are based on the traditional "rebus Reader" - using a picture as a tool for learning a word. On the sample spread, you can see where a picture is substituted for a word. This gives a young reader a sense of pride that she is "reading" the story. All pictures and vocabulary are on flashcards at the end of the book.((Scooby)) and ((Shaggy)) went to ((school)), but it was dark and empty. Did a ((ghost)) scare everyone away? It's another mystery to solve!

Reviews

[Ashleigh · Rating 4 out of 5]

I loved how Shaggy and Scooby broke into a school, ransacked the place, stole (and ate) all the food and then just left without any criminal charges or guilt for what they did.

It is this book that I blame for my life of crime these last two decades, I was radicalised by the actions.

We just love all things Scooby-Doo, so whenever we find another book starring this lovable canine at our local library, we have to borrow it. This book is in a series of beginning reader picture clue books and are simple to read, with lots of rebus pictures scattered throughout the narrative. Our girls read this one to each other and then our youngest asked me to read it to her again. It's a fun and short story, perfect for Scooby fans.

Nick liked this book quite a bit and new immediately that the 'ghost' was a broom with a sheet over it!. He's a fan of Mystery Inc.'s hijinks.
