PRODUCT SUMMARY: Ivy + Bean Super Treasure Box: Meet Ivy and Bean, two friends who never meant to like each other:
Ivy and Bean are very different. Bean is loud and wild and goofy. She
loves to be involved in games and poke her nose in other people's
business. Ivy is quiet and full of ideas. She spends most of her time
learning how to be a witch. Each girl thinks the other one is weird.
Each girl thinks she could never be friends with the other. But
sometimes opposites can become the best of friends because they're
opposites! Ivy & Bean's Secret Treasure Box—which
includes the first three books in the series—is a delightful
introduction to these spunky characters and includes a secret
treasure-hiding box with a cool surprise inside!

Author Annie Barrows talks about her award-winning Ivy + Bean series:
One of the big problems of being a kid is that your parents often try
to make you play with people you don't really like. My parents were
forever trying to get me to like the kids of their friends. These kids
were often weird. I didn't want to play with them. It was a problem.
Ivy and Bean are very different:
Bean is loud and wild and goofy. She loves to be involved in games and
poke her nose in other people's business. Ivy is quiet and full of
ideas. She spends most of her time learning how to be a witch. Each girl
thinks the other one is weird. Each girl thinks she could never be
friends with the other. Especially because their parents keep nagging
them about it. But sometimes opposites can become the best of friends
because they're opposites.
Ivy and Bean Boxed Set 2 (Books 4-6) includes:
Book 4: Ivy + Bean Take Care of the Babysitter :
What's the worst babysitter you can imagine? Okay, now multiply by a
million. Bean's just found out that Nancy is babysitting for the
afternoon. After Ivy rescues her from prison, the two girls turn tragedy
into opportunity.
Book 5: Ivy + Bean: Bound to Be Bad:
Ivy has decided to become good. Extra-super-duperly good. Bean figures
that's a big waste of time-until Ivy explains that if you're really
good, animals and birds follow you around. Wow! Animals and birds!
Bean's going to be good, too! They're going to be nice; they're going to
be sweet; they're going to be kind and generous and-Wait a second! How
did they end up muddy, wet, and in trouble?
Book 6: Ivy + Bean: Doomed to Dance: Ooops.
Ivy and Bean have made a terrible mistake. They thought that ballet
meant leaping, kicking, and cool costumes. Instead, it means they're
going to have to be The Two Friendly Squids in a ballet the teacher made
up. How embarrassing. As disaster looms, the girls come up with a great
escape plan. It's an easy plan, a simple plan, a beautiful plan. It
only involves a field trip, a couple of sharks, and some weird animals
that glow in the dark.

Ivy and Bean Boxed Set: Books 7-9 includes:
Book 7: Ivy + Bean: What's the Big Idea?
Wouldn't it be cool if Ivy and Bean found the solution to global
warming? Wouldn't it be especially cool if the solution was shimmering
pink goo in a test-tube and all the famous scientists in the world
wished they had thought of it first? It's Science Fair time at Emerson
School, and all the kids are supposed to find a way to cool down the
earth. Some kids are planting trees. Some kids are holding their breath
for a very, very long time. Some kids are doing interesting things with
vacuum cleaners. But what should Ivy and Bean do? Something with
explosions? Something with ropes? Something with ice cubes? Or maybe
something very, very quiet . . .
Book 8: Ivy + Bean: No News Is Good News:
Ivy and Bean need some money. Ten dollars, to be exact. Never mind what
for. Don't even ask. Okay, it's for cheese. Two bags of lowfat
Belldeloon cheese in a special just-for-you serving size. Don't ask why.
But ten dollars is a lot of money. How are Bean and Ivy going to make
ten dollars? Should they babysit? Eww, diapers. No. Should they wash the
car? They're not allowed to touch the car. No. Should they write a
newspaper about their neighbors and sell it? Yes. Great idea-and easy
too! All Ivy and Bean have to do is snoop around Pancake Court and gets
some news. It's very interesting what you can find out if you look in
your neighbors' windows. It's even more interesting when the neighbors
read about it in the newspaper.
Book 9: Ivy + Bean Make the Rules: It's
Spring Break, and Bean's older sister, Nancy, is going to Girl Power
4-Ever Camp, where she will do Crafts and Dance and First Aid and other
secret things that Bean will never know about because you have to be
eleven to go to Girl Power 4-Ever Camp. Bean doesn't care. She doesn't
want to go to camp. She wouldn't go even if they begged her. So ha. So
ha ha. So-wait a second! Bean and Ivy can make their own camp, their own
better camp. It's Camp Flaming Arrow, where Crafts include escaping,
Dance includes thumbtacks, First Aid includes zombies, and counselors
Ivy and Bean make the rules.
Ivy + Bean Take the Case: Watch out, you diabolical masterminds! There's a new detective on
Pancake Court: Bean! She laughs at danger! She solves even the most
mysterious mysteries! What? There aren't any mysteries? Then Bean and
her assistant, Ivy, will make some!
