A Bigfoot photo bomb? Mermaids at the Water Park? An attic filled with ghosts? It's not exactly the 'girl vacay' Berni had planned out for her last summer before joining the grown-up world of middle school. But all her dreams of summer fun come to a screeching halt when Uncle Danny whisks her away on a cross-country tour with her eccentric and annoying cousin -- Baxter the Magnificent.Now, poor Berni is squeezed into a sparkly and very itchy magician's assistant costume just so she can be stuffed in a box and sawed in-half once a night (and twice on Sundays ) as part of Baxter's cheese-ball magic show. Fortunately, she's not just Baxter's 'Lovely Assistant'. She's also his debunking partner. Baxter solves Mysteries of the Unexplained. Using his knowledge of magic and illusion, along with her smarts and common sense, they're called into cases to expose the cheaters and tricksters who want to fake us out with monsters, spooks, and space aliens But when Baxter's parents are framed for an impossible robbery using real magic powers, it's up to Baxter and Berni to travel to the famous magic palace and save Baxter's mom and dad from being sent to jail In the tradition of classic kid-detective stories, BUNK allows you to crack the spooky cases alongside Berni and Baxter. Every page and picture provides the clues you'll need. So look sharp, pay attention, and get ready to BUNK A fun and funny story for kids that encourages critical thinking and interactivity.
