Synopsis

Book 5 in the award-winning Bailey Fish Adventure series. During vacation, Bailey Fish and her friends convert an abandoned chicken coop into a theater and start to write their play. Their plans are thwarted when Li'l Bonbon checks into Keswick Inn and takes over the show. The two-faced bossy woman is mean, but the kids are told to be nice to guests no matter what. Emotions rise when the kids rehearse Li'l Bonbon's play about the Civil War in Fredericksburg and worry about a missing dog. Bailey makes a dramatic rescue, and learns another lesson about dealing with bullies, even if they are adults. Learn about the Angel of Marye's Heights and Fredericksburg ghosts.

Review:

Ghost of the Chicken Coop Theater is a great story. It uses some historical facts along with a great storyline. It shows kids who have an imagination for their own fun. It also serves as a lesson on how to deal with a bully, even if the bully is an adult. I loved this book and didn't want to set it down until I was completely finished. ...It will have you cackling with laughter from start to finish. --Brinanne Plach, for Reader Views
