The Skeleton in the Closet (Paperback)

Cole Franklin is a Dallas ten-year-old with a bit of attitude, a precocious curve-ball and a dog named "Buddy" - a 100% lazy black Lab with a most unusual past. Cole's parents are not happy campers; but they have to go to grown-up sleep-away camp for a week anyway. This means that Cole and Buddy have to spend the week either in a kennel or in Dixon's Gap (home of the Fightin' 'Dillos) with Cole's aunt and uncle and Cole's clueless cousins, Taylor and Tony. What starts out to be a b-o-r-i-n-g week becomes anything but that when Cole and Buddy discover ... The Skeleton in the Closet. Set in present-day Texas, Skeleton is an adventure that young readers (ten and up) and their parents will enjoy.
