My Thoughts on the Book:
The Secret of the Sea Creature is a fun & exciting choose your own ending story. There are 14 endings, and obviously I read them all. The only ones that I didn't have a blast with were Velma's, hers ended too quick, but the others were so much fun. I also loved that almost all of the endings were different a.k.a the reason for the sea creature & the one(s) responsible for it were different, so that made it even more fun.The stories were funny (it's Scooby-Doo, of course they were funny), adventurous, interesting & fun. I loved the characters (of course), and the illustrations are quite beautiful, and totally loved them.I highly recommend this book for every child, even adult (if you're Scooby-Doo fan like me). You wouldn't want to miss it!
I always liked those Choose Your Own Adventure books from back in the day, so this sounds like fun. Glad they're still doing interactive books like this, I think kids would love being able to pick different endings. It's nice to see Scooby Doo still around too...
