The Tell-Tale Start (The Misadventures of Edgar & Allan Poe)

Meet Edgar and Allan Poe -- twelve-year-old identical twins, the great-great-great-great-grandnephews of Edgar Allan Poe. They look and act so much alike that they're almost one mischievous, prank-playing boy in two bodies.Â When theirÂ belovedÂ black cat, Roderick Usher, is kidnapped and transported to the Midwest, Edgar and Allan convinceÂ their guardians that it's time for a road trip. Along the way, mayhem and mystery ensue, as well asÂ deeper questions: What is the boys' telepathic connection? Is Edgar Allan Poe himself reaching out to them from the Great Beyond? And why has a mad scientist been spying on the Poe family for years?

With aÂ mix of literary humor, mystery, a little quantum physics, and fun extras likeÂ fortune cookie messages, letters in code, license plate clues --Â andÂ playful illustrations thoughout --Â this series opener is a perfect choice for smart, funny tweens who loveÂ the Time Warp Trio, Roald Dahl, and Lemony Snicket.
