    DiscussionDiscussion GuideGuide Grades 4-7 Griffin Bing is known as The Man with a Plan, especially one that involves kids outwitting adults. In Swindle, Griffin acquires a rare baseball card, only to be cheated out of its true value by an unscrupulous dealer, S. Wendell Palomino, who is quickly nicknamed “Swindle” by Griffin and his friend Ben. After one failed attempt to retrieve the card, Griffin recruits a group of classmates, each with a specific skill his new plan requires. But even the best of plans can be thrown off by unexpected circumstances, creating hilarious and heart-stopping adventure for this motley group of sixth graders. In Zoobreak, Griffin’s class visits a floating zoo where his friend Samantha finds her own recently stolen capuchin monkey. Planning a break-in to retrieve the monkey requires the talents of all Griffin’s friends, and a lot of last-minute changes to make the plan work. But when they reach the zoo boat, Samantha becomes determined to help all the animals escape their terrible conditions, making the plan much more complicated. Dividing up the animals and keeping them safe in a variety of ways, the kids soon realize they will need to stage a completely different sort of break-in. In both of these adventures, the friends work as a team and learn a lot about each other in the bargain. They face some ethical dilemmas, learn how to think quickly, and demonstrate both courage and cleverness in carrying out their plans. PRE-READING VOCABULARY EXERCISE 1.

It’s a long way to Vienna.” The Egyptian Mau emitted a haughty snort that was a clinic in nonverbal communication: You’ve got to be kidding me. “He’s used to red snapper,” Amy said apologetically to Nellie Gomez, the Cahills’ au pair. Nellie was unmoved. “Do you have any idea how much fresh fish costs? We’ve got to make our money last.

    The 39 Clues Blog Tour: Access Granted, Peter Lerangis Posted by Bianca Schulze on August 18, 2010 By Peter Lerangis, for The Children’s Book Review Published: August 18, 2010 Welcome to the 7th stop of The 39 Clues blog tour. We are thrilled to host Peter Lerangis! Be sure to enter the giveaway for your chance to win books 1-7 of this exciting and groundbreaking series. The teacher looked distressed as she greeted me. “I can’t believe what happened to my class,” she said. I braced myself. Behind her, hundreds of excited kids were filing in to the gym. They sat in sections based on the colors of their shirts: red, blue, green, gold, representing the four branches of the Cahill family. Most were dressed as 39 Clues characters. Jonah Wizard (with his bling) and Nellie Gomez (with her punk attire) were very popular — but also a set of twins dressed as fish (Saladin’s red snapper), a girl in a three-piece suit (Jonah’s dad), and a guy dressed as Nellie. They seemed happy and engaged. So what had gone wrong? I knew the school had chosen The 39 Clues as the theme for that year’s curriculum. Makes sense — the series is a worldwide search (geography) for Clues left by the most influential people of all time (history, science), involving twisty plots and strong emotional character connections (language arts) among colorful locales (visual art) and requiring the decoding of cryptic clues (mathematics, logic). Hmm. Was the teacher disturbed by the intensity? It was kind of extreme … That morning, the school had warned us to call ahead.

  • 39 Clues’ Wave by Sally Lodge – 9/22/2010
    David Baldacci on Author Roster for Second ‘39 Clues’ Wave By Sally Lodge – 9/22/2010 The powerful Cahill family will be pitted against a ruthless cabal in Scholastic’s follow-up to its multimedia franchise, The 39 Clues. The new series, The 39 Clues: Cahills vs. Vespers, launches in April 2011 with Vespers Rising by Rick Riordan, Peter Lerangis, Gordon Korman, and Jude Watson, and will wrap up in March 2013 with a seventh installment penned by bestselling thriller author David Baldacci. Vespers Rising has an announced first printing of 500,000 copies. Continuing the multi-platform concept, the second part of the series will entail collectible cards and an online game and will include enhanced interactive features on the series’ Web site. The 39 Clues model has obviously clicked with young readers: there are more than 8.5 million copies of the original 10-book series in print, the series has been licensed for publication in 24 languages, and the Web site has more than 1.2 million registered users to date. Asked about the incentive for creating part deux, David Levithan, v-p and editorial director of Scholastic Press and multi-media publishing, has a simple answer: “The kids wanted it.” He notes that the 10th book, Margaret Peterson Haddix’s Into the Gauntlet, which pubbed in August, “was our best launch yet. And when that book came out, the first installment, The Maze of Bones by Rick Riordan, was still among the top 10 titles on BookScan’s children’s list. The 39 Clues has engaged both readers and gamers and has created a world that kids don’t want to leave and that new kids are discovering all the time.” Rachel Griffiths, senior editor of Scholastic Press and editor of The 39 Clues, says that the 2.0 version immerses readers into the series’ action more extensively than before.

Her lawyer brought out the alternate version, which had been her most guarded secret for seven years. Whether or not she would actually be crazy enough to use it, William McIntyre had never been certain. "Madam," he asked, "are you sure?" Grace gazed out the window, across the sunlit meadows other estate. Her cat, Saladin, snuggled beside her as he had throughout her illness, but his presence was not enough to comfort her today. She was about to set in motion events that might cause the end of civilization. "Yes, William." Her every breath was painful. "I'm sure." William broke the seal on the brown leather folder. He was a tall craggy man. His nose was pointed like a sundial so it always cast a shadow over one side of his face. He had been Grace's adviser, her closest confidant, for half her life. They'd shared many secrets over the years, but none as perilous as this. 6 He held the document for her to review. A fit of coughing wracked her body. Saladin meowed with concern. Once the coughing passed, William helped her take the pen. She scrawled her weak signature across the paper. "They're so young," William lamented. "If only their parents -- " "But their parents didn't," Grace said bitterly. "And now the children must be old enough. They are our only chance." "If they don't succeed -- " "Then five hundred years of work have been for nothing," Grace said.

    START THE HUNT! Dear Book Club Host: Welcome to The 39 Clues Book Club! If you’re new to the club, don’t forget to check out the Establish Your Stronghold introductory activities to unite your new Cahill readers! Get ready to visit the place it all began—Book 1, The Maze of Bones—with this month’s theme: Start the Hunt! Your club members will race to piece together a clue, unlock a code hidden in the Catacombs, and even design their own Cahill-inspired gadget. Activity 1: Race to the Finish Prepare ahead: 1) Make copies of the RACE TO THE FINISH handout. (You will need four clue strips for each team.) 2) Cut out the clue strips and place each set in a container—e.g., a small box or hat. This activity tests club members’ “on your feet” thinking by challenging them to pass clue strips from one club member to the next using only their feet. Have participants divide into teams of five or more, and then have each team form a straight line. Place a box of clues at the front of each team. Club members may stand, sit, or use any other creative position to pass the strip by foot to the next person in line. If the strip falls to the floor, participants may use their hands to retrieve the strip. However, only feet may be used to pass the strip to another participant. You can either let the first team to finish read the phrase out loud to everyone, or if time permits, allow the other teams to continue until they have completed the challenge, too.
