4-6Misadventures of Edgar & Allan Poe series.
Illustrated by
Sam Zuppardi.
Edgar and Allan Poe, twelve-year-old psychically linked twins, return, here starring in a movie about their famous author ancestor while also trying to outwit evil-minded physics professor S. Pangborn Perry. Dickinson twins Em and Milly help foil the plot with clues from emails, letters, and ghostly messages from beyond. Filled with literary references and double entendres, McAlpine's writing offers intrigue and amusement.
