Illustrated by
Karla Peña.
Aspiring TV reporter Emma Perez returns with a new mystery afoot: Sophia's lion costume, part of a group costume with Emma and Javier, has disappeared. Without it, their hopes to win the interschool Halloween costume contest are ruined. Still dauntless and spirited, but fortunately less fame-crazed in this installment, Emma heads up the investigation. Spanish phrases and cheerful illustrations are evenly sprinkled throughout.
