    About this ebook

    It’s Career Week at Bayport Elementary, and Frank and Joe’s school assembly turns up some interesting guests. One student’s uncle is an animal trainer who brings a chimpanzee. Another girl’s father is an anthropologist who brings in a mask decorated with feathers and shells from a Pacific island. But when the assembly is interrupted by a fire drill, the mask is stolen—and the Hardys spring into action.

      Something’s Fishy

      I wonder why we had to bring our coats to assembly today," third-grader Joe Hardy told his brother, Frank. Frank’s fourth-grade class was sitting right behind Joe’s class in the school auditorium.

      Maybe we’re seeing a movie about the North Pole, their friend Chet Morton said. He yanked at his wool hat. Brrr!

      But this is Career Week, Chet, Frank said. We’re supposed to listen to people talk about their jobs.

      They have jobs at the North Pole, Chet said. He pulled out a candy gummy worm and popped it in his mouth. Penguin trainers, dog sled drivers . . . elves.

      It was Thursday, the fourth day of Career Week. Frank and Joe had been counting the days until Friday. That’s when their dad would speak to the assembly about his job. Fenton Hardy was a private detective in Bayport. He was going to talk about solving crimes.

      Hey, Joe! Tanya Wilkins called across his row. Cool sneakers!

      Thanks, Joe said. He stretched out his feet and smiled at his brand-new Laser Light Sneakers. They had orange blinking lights all the way around the soles.

      Ms. Vaughn, the principal of Bayport Elementary School, walked onto the stage.

      Good morning, boys and girls, she said into the microphone.

      Good morning, Ms. Vaughn, the kids chanted.

      This is our fourth assembly of Career Week, Ms. Vaughn said. So far this week our guests have been a dentist, a fire-fighter, and the manager of Buster Burger. Do any of you know what you want to be when you get older?

      Tanya raised her hand and stood up. I want to be a black-belt karate movie star, she said. Just like Jimmy Han. Today is Jimmy’s birthday, you know.

      Tanya was in the Hardys’ karate class. She was also the president of her own Jimmy Han fan club.

      Thank you, Tanya, Ms. Vaughn said. We don’t have a karate star here today, but we do have some interesting guests.

      She turned to two men sitting on chairs at the back of the stage. One had a big cardboard box next to his feet. The other had a big basket on his lap.

      We have Danny Frobish’s father. He’s an animal trainer. And we have Peter Zekey’s uncle, who’s an anthropologist, Ms. Vaughn said. And last but not least, Vicky Jamar’s father—Awesome Abe the Chocolate-Chip Cookie King.

      I’ll bet he’s got cookies in that basket, Chet said. He pumped his fist in the air. Awesome Abe! Woo! Woo! Woo!

      "Chet Morton, this is not a
