Ducky Decoy

One day, my little sister went into my room to snoop. When I got back from school I caught her looking under the poster that I kept the map to all the places in the house that I hid stuff!!!!!!! Then I realized that was the decoy that I set up just in case that happened. Thank goodness the real ones were hidden in the shades.

Video Vault Victory

I used the video tape vault idea (from your book) and it was very successful! We have a lot of broken videos in the basement, and four of them are now vaults. I am very pleased with this, because it works!!! Also, at school, my friends and I have a special hiding place in the library! We hide notes to each other on at page number we secretly share inside an old, dusty, library book that no one ever reads. It is quite effective! I recommend this book to all...

SHP Rocks!

I have shelves that are built in to the wall. I made that secret wall in my book shelf on the bottom shelf. I used white paper to cover the brown card board instead of paint like you put in the book. The shelves are white. All of my cards are kept back there now and I have shoes and sneakers in front of the wall. My mom was even down there cleaning stuff up and she didn't see it. Nobody can see it. This book really rocks!!!!!!!!!!!

Seems to like it a lot

I bought this book at my school book fair. I bought it because my sister is always looking for my girlfriend's letters and my money. Yes, I really do like this book a lot and I've used most of the hiding spots on it and I like how you tell how to make treasure maps.

P.S. My friends like the book 2
