Eleven-year old Jenkins is shocked when his new classmate turns out to be the oddly dressed, hole-digging kid who just moved in next door. No two kids could be more different--Clyde’s passion is mushrooms and Jenkins’ is baseball. The two boys are assigned as partners on a school project to be exhibited during a class field trip to historic Salem, Massachusetts. Jenkins has no interest in witchy-old Salem and even less working with Clyde on "Fungal Infestations and Molds in Early America." The boys' friendship is tested when they're trapped in a creepy Salem museum and one of them disappears. Will the museum calamity put an end to their mission to prove that all was not as it seemed with the "witches" in 17th century Salem?If you like this one, read the sequel, Weird Trip Back to Salem!
