Philip And The Haunted House (9781619500020) - Plot & Excerpts
Philip turned the mower off when he saw him. “What’s in there?” Philip asked. “Your mom made you some lemonade. I see you’re sweating. Why don’t you stop for lunch and have some of this lemonade to cool off?” “I’m hungry,” Emery said. He wiped his sleeve across his forehead. “I didn’t think I could sweat so much when it wasn’t summer.” Philip’s father laughed. “You’re doing a good day’s work, Emery. Run and get your lunch.” Emery looked at Philip and both boys knew without saying anything they would go to the porch together to pick up their lunch. They walked toward the porch step-by-step, shoulder-to-shoulder. When they reached the porch steps, they stared in surprise. “Where is it?” Emery whispered. He and Philip looked right, then left. Philip waved his hand to Emery, and they walked up the three steps onto the porch and looked right and left again. The brown paper bag wasn’t there. “Dad,” Philip called. “Shhh! Not so loud,” Emery warned, keeping his eyes on the front door and the two dark windows on each side of it.
