Item description from seller

Paperback. A Big Surprise for Easter is unexpected, small-town adventure. In this story, the little old Lady (the witch) is out to try and steal every Easter basket in the town! Mysterious leaflets are found all over town, offering a reward for information that will lead her to the homes of the five little "varmints" that have been ruining her lifestyle. Reading a leaflet, the boys discover a secret code. Breaking the code becomes a matter of good detective work involving several people in the community who give the boys information they were looking for. A friend of the boys makes them a shortwave radio set to eavesdrop on broadcasting conversation of the witch. The boys discover that the local mockingbird and other native birds are being used for surveillance purposes to spy on earthlings. An alien decoding machine is made to translate into text the birds singing; the aliens could thereby decipher information from the birds. By changing the aliens' code system into a default setting, the boys confuse the witch and the alien surveillance system on the spacecraft. Once again, the boys outsmart the little old Lady! THE SERIES: Holiday Favorites is a collection of nine novellas (short stories) written by George F. Kohn. Most of the stories coincide with the holiday months of the school calendar year, each of those stories being dedicated to its special holiday. October is Halloween - The Legend of "The Hal-lo-Ween and the Motorcycle Witch" November is Thanksgiving - The First Thanksgiving December is Christmas - The Magic Christmas Tree February is Valentine's Day - A Valentine Dream March is Easter - A Big Surprise for Easter April is a celebration in St. Petersburg, Florida - The Festival of States Parade July is Independence Day - The Big Fourth The last two stories, in addition to the holiday stories, are about exploring the unknown - what if? They involve using the reader's own imagination and creativity: The Experiment - an alien mission harvests ancient implants. Neanderthal versus Cro-Magnon - different cultures and skills of two tribes are explored. INTRODUCTION to SERIES: A long time ago, before television, forests grew all around a neighborhood near the edge of the great forbidden Cypress Swamp. The people in the neighborhood all shared their lives, beliefs, and superstitions, creating an atmosphere of adventure throughout the neighborhood. In the neighborhood lived five young boys. There was an old mulberry tree that stood on the outskirts of town. Over the years, someone had built a tree house in the fork of two large limbs that spread out over the cemetery. The tree house, called the Fort, was built large enough for the boys to use as their clubhouse. Inside the tree Fort, the boys had a panoramic view of the surrounding area. Looking out the north window, the boys could see a large meadow stretching out into the distance. Through the east window, they could see far away the top of a bald cypress tree. Everyone knew that meant there was a dangerous swamp nearby. In this series of stories, some strange and incredible things happen in the area to challenge the boys' ingenuity. Utilizing their imagination and skills, the boys successfully solve one problem after another. What is real, and how much is in their imagination? This item is printed on demand.
