Shiver by the Sea
3 primary works
Book 1
For fans of Eerie, Elementary, Bailey School Kids, and The Notebook of Doom, the first book in a magical, spooky new chapter book series about friendship, community restoration and involvement, and helping your neighbors . . . even if some of them may be monsters.
Bella Gossi just moved from New York City to the Massachusetts beach town of Shiver-by-the-Sea to live with her Uncle Van. Bella’s excited about helping her mom fix up the old movie theater, but she’s already missing her old home and her old friends, and just driving through downtown, it’s pretty clear that this place has seen better days.
After meeting Cooper and his adorable basset hound, Casper, things start looking up. But when mom tasks them with clearing out an old trunk from the theater and picking the first movie they’ll show, that’s when the trouble begins. Out of the trunk pops a bat! But not just any bat . . . a kid vampire. A very hungry, very scared kid vampire, who’s lost and doesn’t know how to get home to his family.
Bella and Cooper are a little frightened at first, too, but soon they’re on a mission to help Bram find his way home, because that’s what real friends do.

Book 2
For fans of Eerie, Elementary, Bailey School Kids, and The Notebook of Doom, the second book in a magical, spooky new chapter book series about friendship, community restoration and involvement, and helping your neighbors . . . even if some of them may be monsters.
The local humane society is hosting a puppy adoption day on the Shiver-by-the-Sea town common, and Bella Gossi, her friend, Cooper, and his basset hound, Casper go to check out the dogs. Bella’s immediately drawn to a shy, scruffy, scraggly puppy at the far edge of the pen. When every other puppy gets adopted, Bella, feeling sorry for the little pup, agrees to foster her over the weekend while the shelter figures out what to do with her.
But when the sun goes down, the sleepy, scruffy pup goes positively wild in Uncle Van’s house—racing around, chewing everything she can get her teeth on, and howling at the moon. Can Bella figure out what’s up with the pup before some unsuspecting family takes her home?

Book 3
The third book in this spooky, sweet series makes a big splash as Bella and her friends help a new mucky monster. Perfect for fans of Eerie, Elementary, Bailey School Kids, and The Notebook of Doom.
When Bella, Cooper, Casper, and Bram go to help get the new community pool ready for its grand opening, they find more than just a place to swim and splash. Gloppy green webbed footprints lead right out the back door, and right into Shiver-By-the-Sea!
Soon there are reports from a few Shiver residents that something’s been eating the fish in their ponds.
Can the three friends find the creature and help it find a new cozy home before its caught and sent off to the aquarium?
Creature From the Gloppy Green Pool is monstrously fun, warm, and welcoming, and a perfect addition to the Shiver-by-the-Sea chapter book series.
