Polly Winkler, a fourth-grade girl who does not have a mother lives in a house with her family. When the Kreep family moves into a mansion that Polly sees as haunted, she is resolute to keep Veronica Kreep and her family out of her life. She sees the Kreeps as a fitting name because of the house they moved into and also the way they present themselves. Throughout the book Polly is trying to find a mom for her dad to help raise the kids. Polly’s plans go awry when her father starts hanging out with Veronica. Then one day, her father tells the family that he is going to marry Veronica. This book was a very easy read. The font was large and the story was short. Meet the Kreeps is a book series that has a couple of books. With the way the book ends, where Veronica and Polly’s dad are getting married, it leaves the reader with a cliffhanger. It makes the reader want to immediately pick up the next book and start reading story two from the book series. This would be a good book to teach acceptance to a child who has a single parent and may be going through a recent marriage.
