Valentine's Day Dognapping

Scooby-Doo! Readers #10

by Gail Herman, Duendes del Sur (Illustrator)

Scooby-Doo, that lovable canine super-sleuth, has become a Scholastic star. The stories in this reading format are easy to read and fun to solve. The Scooby-Doo Readers are a level above the Picture Clue Books. The text is easy-to-read and the art is bold and full-bleed, making these an appealing Level 2 reader.Scooby and his buddies are trying a new pizza parlor--the food is great, but there's something strange about the owners. They wear pointed hats and black clothes. They live in a spooky old house. Could they be witches? And what do they want with Scooby's new girlfriend? It looks like another mystery for Scooby and the gang!

Stupide, honnêtement. Alors 🤷

Did a coven of witches kidnap the love of Scooby-Doo's life? And what are they cooking in their cauldron? This is a fun book in the Scooby-Doo! Readers series. It's short, with lots of colorful illustrations and the Valentine's Day-themed mystery is not scary. We all love Scooby-Doo, so these books are a particular favorite at storytime. I purchased this book for our youngest for a Valentine's Day gift and we all enjoyed reading this story together.

Kidnappers, hist a dog (that Scooby had fallen in love with) from the Pizzara to what appears to be a hunted housed! No worries – Scooby and gang are there for the rescue!

Another mystery to solve and there is no one better to solve it than Scooby-Doo and the gang. Well, my kids must have inherited their love of Scooby-Doo from me because anything with Scooby-Doo in it is a must. This was a fun read with the kids, it is a level 2 reader, so a little advanced for the kids (4 & 5), but they did a great job with the words they knew and enjoyed the story.

I love it and I love Scooby-Doo! It was of course a funny story, like all scooby-doo stories. It had a twist ending that even I couldn't see. Scooby also found a lady friend! ;)

It was okay, but I’d hoped for better.

2023 - Wyatt did Shaggy and Scooby’s voices this year, which was fun.

2024 - Kait chose to read us this one.
