Dr. Fell and the Playground of Doom by David Neilsen
4.0
I really enjoyed this one. All the local kids play at an old abandoned house, which is suddenly bought by a man named Dr. Fell. Gail, Jerry, and Nancy meet him, and notice that he seems a bit sinister. But he builds a fantastic playground that captivates the minds of all of their friends. Soon, kids start getting hurt and disappear into the house, only to return healed and saying "Dr. Fell is a wonderful man." Can the kids figure out what he's up to without him noticing?
I didn't get into it right away, but once the playground appeared, I was hooked. The purple prose may turn off some kids, so it's a little weird in that it has a large vocabulary but is aimed at younger readers. However, the language is almost always translated, so that will help. I really liked it.
