About the Book

The Writer’s Corner is the third book Mrs. Beckley has written. This book introduces the reader to a new set of characters: Beth, Jerry, Karen, their parents, their siblings, and their teachers. It takes place in the same school forty-five years later, in 2011–2012. It is an interactive book that introduces the reader, as well as the new classmates, how to write articles for a school newspaper, The Wiz, on the topics A Christmas Carol and the Titanic, the district swim and diving meet, the ghost William, and the first gold rush in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 1799, and some of the history of Korea. This book also brings back all the characters from the first and second book for an alumni concert and the reopening of B’J’S. The Golden Nugget is the fourth book in the series and follows Beth, Jerry, Karen, William, and their families in some new adventures.
