Mayhem on Mackinac Island

Sandy and her brother are transported to an alternate dimension filled with scary creatures, and they must find the Stone Key if they want to get home. Reading this book is like being told a story by Sandy, as everything is in first person past tense, with some interjections of "You know how it feels? That's how I felt." Chapters are very short, the paragraphs within are very short, and they follow a very predictable pattern. Every chapter ends with a "scary" cliffhanger that is immediately resolved at the beginning of the next. The action keeps up, though, pulling readers along. The fantastical creatures accentuate the fact that we aren't on Mackinac Island any more (which makes the title slightly misleading). It doesn't matter how show more poorly written and predictable this series is, 2nd and 3rd graders will continue to clamor for them, at least until the next big scary series comes along. show less
