Derwood, Inc.

Pull on your boots! Its winter in Peabody, Wisconsin, and there is plenty of excitement afoot at the Derwood household. Wise-cracking siblings Jack and Penny become entangled in an international smuggling operation and the nonstop adventure of cracking a dangerous case. At times, however, it is hard to decide which is a greater threat: seasoned criminals or neighborhood bullies. Illustrated by Del Thompson.

"If you ever smuggled the tiniest flashlight underneath your own covers to continue with Nancy Drew or similar characters, youll enjoy the three-dimensional, real-life aspect of these tales." - The Old Schoolhouse

"The jokes do not get old, and it is well-written and fun. This is a book that I have read multiple times and thoroughly enjoyed each time." - Squeaky Clean Reviews

"Derwood never got boring. Jeri Massis story is both hilarious and serious, absurd and real. Every year the antics of the Peabody kids were a new thrill for my students and a much-anticipated reading class for me." - Linda Samaritoni, The Scriblerians
