{My thoughts} – Orson Eerie is most certainly up to no good once again. In this all new book, he decides to attack Sam, Antonio and Luycy by turning art supplies and art projects loose on them. It’s no wonder these three kids are always thinking something bad is going to happen when the name Orson Eerie is thought about.

Orson Eerie has figured out that he can still reach his evil powers outside of the school and that the hall monitors won’t be able to stop him off of school grounds. He intentionally leads the children to his hidden art studio which in turn gets his painting auctioned off during the art show. The children decide that they have to find a way to stop that painting from leaving the school, so they decide to brainstorm and come up with a way to buy the painting themselves.

I really enjoy this series. It’s got a nice cozy feel to it and it isn’t too scary. I can’t wait until I am able to get my littles one’s to sit still for longer books, because these are definitely going to be added to our reading list at that point!

This is a must have series for any child’s library. It is absolutely incredible! It has a way of pulling the reader in and keeping there until the very last page, and then makes them want more! I’m looking forward to the next book in the series!

This one wasn't as good as the first 8, it lacked the spookiness and thrills the other books had. With the others, even though they're targeted towards children, they still had this creepy vibe, this one wasn't creepy at all, which sucked. I'm hoping book 10 is better than this. - R.C.

I am loving the growth of these characters - and the illustrations!
Friends working together, overcoming obstacles, creative problem solving. Just so well done.
Ms Winter plans an art auction to help fund new art supplies - Sam can barely finish his clay T Rex on time. After class, Sam is dragged up stairs to a wall - with bricks easily moved. He discovers a secret room - and Orson Eerie's secret self portrait.
Realizing Orson is using the art show to gain power outside of the school, they must come up with $100 to purchase the portrait at the art show. Will they succeed?
