When the Smithfork family moves into a lavish Manhattan apartment building, they discover clues to a decades-old mystery hidden behind the walls of their new home.

When Lily discovers a bear in her garden, she mistakenly thinks it is a dog and wants to keep it for her pet.

As Benjamin Pratt and his friends Jill and Robert continue their efforts to save their school, they find themselves dodging two evil janitors, Lyman and Wally, but their team has also grown and now has a secret fund of millions of dollars.

Nick and Maxine have a new babysitter--the eccentric Mrs. Noodlekugel who lives in the funny little house behind their drab high-rise apartment building along with her feline butler, Mr. Fuzzface, and four farsighted mice.

Lucy thinks there is a monster lurking outside her bedroom window, so her mother makes a dragon out of clay to protect her while she sleeps.

Looking outside her bedroom window, Lily gets the best surprise ever a doggy! But this is no ordinary doggy this is an enormous bear escaped from the zoo. Delighted with her new 'canine' friend, Lily and Doggy have a fantastic day together, raiding the fridge and playing in the park. But their fun is suddenly cut short when the local zookeeper comes to collect his lost bear. Luckily for Lily, the next day brings another wonderful surprise at the bottom...

Jimmy Bishop likes crime fighters, vampires, and dogs, and he does not care for his new babysitter, so he is delighted when his new dog, Abby--who sleeps during the day and grows huge fangs at night--turns out to be a crime-fighting vampire dog who also does not like the babysitter.

On a snow day off from school, a young boy cannot wait to have a snowball fight.

Bored by the lack of crime in Quietville lately, Jimmy's vampire dog, Abby, has chewed up his mother's entire shoe collection, and so his parents have insisted in enrolling Abby in obedience training, and the longer it goes on the more "normal" (and boring) she becomes--but when mysterious things start happening to Jimmy's lacrosse team, he and his friends (the Crimebiters) realize they need to get Abby back to her crime fighting ways.
