Description
Are you ready for Ivy Pocket? The wickedly funny, completely unreliable maid of no importance returns—this time as a coffin maker’s daughter—in this action-packed sequel to Anyone but Ivy Pocket. “Please, nobody stop Ivy Pocket.”—Kirkus Reviews
Everyone seems to want a piece of Ivy Pocket. Her adoptive parents keep trying to get her to clean the funeral home, even though Ivy’s certain she’s already the picture of a perfect daughter. A beautiful heiress named Estelle wants Ivy to uncover the dark truth behind her brother’s death. Her new friend, Miss Carnage, keeps asking Ivy the most curious questions (the poor, clueless dear). To top it all off, Ivy must protect the Clock Diamond from the evil Miss Always, who seems to be lurking around every corner!
A fast-paced and hilarious sequel to Anyone but Ivy Pocket that is perfect for middle grade readers. “Another gripping-and laugh-out-loud-adventure.”—School Library Journal. Features extensive black-and-white interior art by Barbara Cantini.
