Book 1:

Getting the Best of Harley Wigglestein

Price:

Summary

Hi, I’m Millie Stillman, and I don’t usually go around telling everyone my business, but I’ve had enough of Harley Wigglestein! I’ve had enough of her punching me in the arm, and playing pranks on me, and being at my house all the time.
I was thinking, that maybe, if I give her a taste of her own medicine, I could get her to stop. I already tried punching her in the arm, but she thought it was a bug, so that doesn’t work, and she has to come over all the time because my mom babysits her, but pranks are another thing. I’m sure I can think up some good pranks. I mean, after all, how hard can that be?
I think I’ll talk to Angie about it on the bus tomorrow.
But one thing for sure, if it’s the last thing I do, I’m getting the best of Harley Wigglestein!
Join in the fun, as Millie finds out just how hard it is to think like her nemesis. From bugs to lima beans, nothing is off limits in this all-out prank war. Will Millie win the war? And is there another side to Harley she never imagined?

Book 2:

Harley Wigglestein and the Old Lady Next Door

Price:

Summary

Hi, I’m Millie Stillman. The Schumachers next door are selling their house. I hope a girl just my age moves in. Me, her. and Angie, can all be friends. We could build a treehouse in her tree. It’s the best treehouse tree in the neighborhood.
Maybe her bedroom could be across from mine and we could have a special code to send each other messages. It would be great to have another girl in the neighborhood. There’s just me and Angie, and she lives two whole blocks away. Unless you count Harley. Which I don’t.
And I super-wished. Please, oh please, let my super-wish come true.
The only way Millie’s super-wish could have come true is if it had been made seventy years earlier. A strange old lady moves in next door, and even stranger things start happening. Millie wouldn’t be caught dead at her house, but Harley? Harley is another story. Why does she keep going over to her house? Has the old lady cast a spell on her?

Book 3:

Harley Wigglestein Hijacks the Holidays

Price:

Summary

The only thing worse than not going to my grandparent's house for the holidays, is having to spend them with Harley Wigglestein. This year, I got both.
It’s all my fault. I had to open up my big mouth and say it was boring to spend Thanksgiving with just your parents. Now, Mom invited Harley’s family, and Harley has a smile that looks like she’s up to something. I don’t know what’s going to happen this Thanksgiving, but if Harley’s involved, I doubt it will be good.
Thanksgiving turned out to be better than Millie thought…mostly, and it looks like Harley won’t be around for Christmas. Then Millie and her mom make a discovery that changes Christmas for them, possibly forever.
