About this ebook

Meet Ziggy and his friends Rico, Rashawn, and Jerome! They call themselves The Black Dinosaurs and share exciting adventures in these fast-paced, easy-to-read stories that include historical, social, and scientific information along with action and thrills.

In The Buried Bones Mystery, the boys build a clubhouse in Ziggy’s backyard, where they uncover a box of bones while digging to bury their secret treasures. The boys are swept up in a mystery more intriguing—and scary—than anything they could have imagined. Who could have buried a box of bones behind their clubhouse?

In Lost in the Tunnel of Time, the boys discover their hometown was a stop on the Underground Railroad and are excited to explore the part of the tunnel that is right under their school. When a trapdoor slams behind them, locking them in the tunnel, there’s only one thing they can do—plunge deeper and deeper into the darkness. Where will the tunnel lead them? And will the old, crumbling walls hold until they find their way to the end?

A Very Special Secret

Can’t you drive any faster, Daddy? Emily McDougal begged.

Her father was driving the family station wagon. He glanced back at Emily from the driver’s seat.

You wouldn’t want me to get a speeding ticket, Emily-Memily, he said with a twinkle in his blue eyes. If I did, it would take even longer to get to your friends’ houses. We might even be late for the movie!

Emily knew her father was right. Still, she couldn’t help feeling impatient as he stopped at a stop sign. Another car crossed in front of them. It seemed to take forever to go by. Emily bit her lip and counted to five. Finally her father started driving again.

There were two reasons that Emily was so impatient. The first was that Mr. McDougal was taking Emily and her three best friends to the movies. They were going to see The Unicorn Fairy. The girls had been dying to see that movie ever since they’d first heard about it.

But that wasn’t the only reason Emily was excited. She had a secret—a big one! She couldn’t wait to share it with her friends.

Remember not to say anything about the big news, okay? she reminded her father. I want to wait until all four of us are together.

Mr. McDougal took one hand off the steering wheel just long enough to cross his heart. Your secret is safe with me, he promised.

Thanks, Daddy. Emily fiddled with the strap of her seat belt. Sometimes when she was feeling anxious or impatient or nervous, she tried to distract herself by wriggling her fingers or playing with her long, pale blond hair. But today it didn’t work. She still felt her heart racing with excitement and her stomach flip-flopping eagerly.

She looked out the window. The McDougals lived out in the country, but their old farmhouse was only about a fifteen-minute drive from town. It was even closer to the subdivision at the edge of town where Emily’s friend Jo Sanchez lived. They would be there soon. Emily just hoped she could wait that long!

Soon Emily’s father was turning onto Larkspur Lane. Emily could see Jo standing out in front of the Sanchezes’ tidy home. Jo was always right on time for everything. She waved when she saw the station wagon.

As soon as her father stopped, Emily reached over and opened the door. Jo climbed in beside her.

Hi, Mr. McDougal, Jo said. Thanks for taking me to the movies.

You’re very welcome. Mr. McDougal started the car up again.

Jo fastened her seat belt, then looked at Emily. Hey, Emily, what’s the matter with you?

What do you mean? Emily tried to look and sound just like she always did. But it was no use. Her
