About The Book

The Junior Monster Scouts forage for a very special ingredient in this exciting Level 2 Ready-to-Read!

Vampyra’s aunts—Belladonna, Hemlock, and Moonflower—are going to cook Vampyra’s favorite dish, Cauldron Stew, but they’re missing one key ingredient: Troll Root. When the Junior Monster Scouts go to collect some, they discover how it got its name…and why it’s so hard to collect.

Raves and Reviews

This story will engage young readers who are looking for lengthier early reader books—children will feel triumphant at being able to read through the story. The characters are endearing, and the text is large. Long’s art style is well used here, with bright colors and exaggerated features that make the story soar.
