Program Description

Event Details

It's 1860 in New York City. When 12-year-old twins Alex and Cleo's father disappears, they join the Black Hook Gang. Soon after, Alex is arrested for burglary, but the twins cut a deal with the police chief and leave town to start a new life. They assume different identities, but upon their arrival in New Orleans, they find even more trouble. Alex is kidnapped and made to work on a ship that is heading for San Francisco via Cape Horn. Cleo stows away on a steamer to New Granada where she hopes to catch a train to San Francisco to find her brother.

What neither twin realizes is that they hold the keys to a lost pirate treasure, and the pirates want their treasure back! Alex and Cleo must survive harrowing adventures if they're ever going to see each other - or their father - ever again.

 

Tweens are welcome to come discuss the selected title while munching on some pizza! **Registration is required for each meeting!**
