What makes Addison books different
from other books?
Addison books marry entertainment with education, introducing new vocabulary words and brief definitions in a unique manner. With definitions located on each page, the hunt for unfamiliar definitions at the back of the book becomes eliminated. This new format empowers young readers and allows them to continue reading without timely disruptions. While reading these amusing tales, Addison books transport young readers to new locations, introduce other cultures, and share relatable situations.
Addison's Canadian Caper
Addison Anderson is a clever, cheerful girl, who is currently studying the castles of other countries. Having won a creative writing contest and a free trip to Canada, Addison is curious to meet her Canadian challenger. To her surprise, her very own cousin, Corby Clemens, comes through the door!
While the Andersons visit the Clemens’ clan, Corby’s cat, Clover, disappears! Addison and Corby find clues that point to a Cat Burglar, and Corby’s concern for Clover convinces him to call in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Corby is confident that with them on the job, the Cat Burglar will soon be caught, or will he?
