The Curlytops on Star Island; Or, Camping out with Grandpa

Howard Roger Garis

Adventure, Children & Young Adult Reading

Two adventurous siblings. One mysterious island. And a grandfather wise enough to know that the best memories are made under open skies. Ted and Jan Martin, the Curlytops, are bursting with excitement as their grandfather bundles them off to camp on Star Island. Between marshmallow fires and canoe trips, the children spot something strange: a flickering blue light dancing across the water at night. What could it be? As the mystery deepens, the Curlytops put their courage and curiosity to the test, learning that the world is full of wonders waiting for those brave enough to investigate. Set against the lush backdrop of early 20th-century American countryside, this is a warm celebration of childhood's simple joys: exploration, sibling rivalry turned into teamwork, and the magic of a grandparent's love. Perfect for young readers who crave outdoor adventure and gentle puzzles.
