The Green Beans, Volume 3: The Curious Conundrum of Pan Gu

SOMETHING LIES BENEATH…

Only a handful of days have passed since the nefarious efforts of Jasper, the evil school janitor, were squashed. Although they are exhilarated with their victory, the Beans have come to realize that Jasper is but the tip of the iceberg in the schemes of a larger organization of dubious methods and goals.

Be that as it may, they’re happy to have a break from the astonishing events of recent weeks, and their field trip to the Portsmouth Museum of Historical Artifacts seems like the perfect way to relax. It doesn’t take long, however, for the Beans to realize that serious weirdness is afoot, and things are not as they initially appear.

In this museum, nothing is what it seems at face value. There are artifacts of mysterious, unknown power, and the staff members are acting awfully peculiar. Most significant of all, the building’s primary purpose may not be to serve as a museum at all, but to hide the gargantuan secret that lies beneath it… a secret so big, its unveiling may transform the communities of Portsmouth and Hollow Oak.

“The Green Beans” is a series of middle grade novels with themes of environmental conservation, featuring elements of adventure, mystery, science fiction, and the paranormal. Recommended for ages 9-12 (and anybody who is still young at heart).
