Destiny and Faith's Summer Adventures



Destiny and Faith are now out of school for the summer and are looking for a way to work and make money. As they are walking down the street, they notice new neighbors with a little boy named Dustin. They are moving into the house that old man Mr. Jenkins used to live in. Destiny and Faith say that it is haunted. Dustin’s mom tells them he is deaf, but luckily, Destiny and Faith know how to do sign language. Dustin’s mom gives Destiny and Faith a job of cleaning the attic. When they were done, Dustin’s mom told them to come back tomorrow if they wanted a new job. That night, they notice Mr. Jenkins ghost in the window again. They sneak out and sign to Dustin that Mr. Jenkins is in the window. Mr. Jenkins moves from the attic window, to downstairs window when he sees the girls out the window. Then he proceeds to come outside to chase the girls off.
You must read this book to find out if the girls made it home, if Dustin’s family will be alright with a ghost in the house, and to find out if Destiny and Faith ever find another summer job beside cleaning Dustin’s house for his mother. This book is so totally cute! It is well written and will be easy for kids to read and follow. It even has an alphabet sign language chart at the end so that kids can practice after they read the story. This book has cute illustrations and gives children a visualization of what the characters look like.
