Welcome to Spookyville! This October, Robinson Reading Company is featuring Drak, a chapter book perfect for readers looking for a fun, slightly spooky adventure this Halloween season.

In Drak, Jon, a realtor, is focused on throwing the perfect wedding for him and his fiancée, Mina. To finance the wedding, Jon travels across the ocean to sell a very strange house owned by an unusual man named Drak. Who is this strange man and why does he insist the house be sold in the middle of the night?

This is an adventure story that our students consider more fun than scary (but not all students want to read about monsters). If your student enjoys a creepy tale, Drak is an ideal read this Halloween. With humor, intrigue, and a hint of the spooky, this book will captivate readers who love a good adventure with a fun twist. This is the first installment of the Spookyville series, a Robinson Reading Company original made exclusively for our tutors and students of the Robinson Reading System®
