The House-in-the-House is an incredibly fast paced adventure story about an ordinary boy who experiences extraordinary things. The only thing 12-year old Ruben Beasley wants to do is enjoy his summer but his life is turned upside down when his parents transplant him from Ohio to Drewberry, Massachusetts. Secrets abound at their strange new house, and with his best friend Nick, Ruben explores them. Together they discover things about the town that may put their lives in danger. Drewberry's Festival of Sweets is filled with more excitement than treats as a storm begins to brew that could destroy everything. Hidden tunnels, buried bones and long kept secrets are all discovered in what ends up being the most exciting and fun summer of Ruben's life! Clara Rosebrock of Reader to Reader says, "I thoroughly enjoyed reading The House in the House. Ruben's adventures were truly a thrill to read. It was wonderful to read about that carefree time, of making friends, of exploring mysterious tunnels, and of course of eating delicious sounding doughnuts. I believe the kids will really enjoy reading this over the coming semester!"
