The Game Master: Summer Schooled

Product Information

The characters make a diverse and supportive team, as they provide encouragement for each other to face their private terrors. Their horrors include spiders, heights, and clowns, so many readers will experience similar emotions. Becca Zamolo is the leader, and her best friend is Matt. You may notice these names are the same as the authors, but an interesting twist is the characters did not get along well at the beginning of the first book. The chapters are titled Becca or Matt, as the focus alternates between the two of them. Kylie is the brainiac and decoding expert, and Danny videotapes everything the team encounters. Along with Frankie and Miguel, the team members pool their strengths to defeat the Game Master. This book will appeal to young readers learning to enjoy mysteries. The whole plot is focused on locating Miguel’s missing pets, as the characters are forced to figure out cryptic messages left by the Game Master. They explain information they already know and explore the possible meanings of the new evidence they uncover. They then spell out any understandings gained from new discoveries, so young readers can learn how to solve mysteries along with the characters.
