Hi! Elleen Parks from West School in Long Beach. Loving Something Mysterious. Finding the book quite intriguing and feel it would be quite the engaging read aloud for my 2nd graders. #FSMSummerRead

A1: Of course the rubber ducks were the greatest mystery, but the shed by the police station also seems mysterious especially since it's a shared space. #FSMSummerRead

I would definitely be friends with Shanks. She is so strong and when I was young I was very shy. I needed the strong energy of my friends to help me come out of my shell. I believe Shanks could be that friend. #FSMSummerRead

I agree with Beth who said she thinks Paul is right for him and he doesn't need a nickname. If I must give him one, it might be Pokey P because he likes to poke around to find out the truth. #FSMSummerRead

A4: 🔔 A bell for Bellwood might be the perfect Emoji symbol. #FSMSummerRead
