by Elizabeth Levy
from Aladdin
Fletcher doesn't understand why humans are so fond of vacations -- from a lazy basset hound's perspective, every day is a vacation. But pets are welcome at Raccoon Lodge, and the dog biscuits are homemade, so maybe there is something to this vacation thing after all.
There's only one slight problem -- the lodge appears to be haunted by a cool ghoul, and that may spell trouble for Fletcher and Jasper's new friend, a timid raccoon named Rocky. Fletcher may have to take to the slopes himself to solve this mystery!

It's not much to go on.
Then, one night, the lights in the whole building go out. Will Sam and Robert finally learn the spooky truth?
Vampire State Building
by Elizabeth Levy
from HarperCollins
Sam Bamford loves playing online chess with his friend Vlad, who is from Romania. Vlad says he's a beginner, like Sam, but he beats Sam every time. It doesn't matter to Sam where Vlad lives. But Sam's brother, Robert, is sure Vlad knows vampires, since the original Dracula lived in Romania. Maybe he is even related to one.
Then Vlad tells Sam he's coming to New York, where Sam lives, for a chess tournament. A beginner in a chess tournament? Is Vlad keeping secrets from Sam? And is it possible that Vlad really does come from a family of vampires-and now they're coming for a visit?
This sequel to Elizabeth Levy's popular Frankenstein Moved in on the Fourth Floor and Dracula Is A Pain In The Neck is funny -- as long as you read it with the lights on.
