Halloween is here, and it is Alicia’s favorite time of year. What’s not to like about dressing up in a costume and getting free candy? But there is something even more exciting happening this year. For the first time, Alicia and her friends are throwing a virtual party in TullyTown!
Putting together a party in TullyTown isn’t easy, and Alicia and her friends want to do the best they can to make sure it is enjoyed by plenty of avatars in TullyTown. For one of Alicia’s friends, getting ready to throw a TullyTown party leads to looking for easy treats. But what if it’s a trick?
Alicia has been using her tablet for a while and is getting more used to how to use the technology. However, there is always something new for her and her friends to learn.</pp
My Review
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
In this follow up to the first Alicia Connected we discover new ways to keep ourselves safe on the internet. As Alicia and her friends plan a virtual party in Tully Town – it's going to be great! When one of her friends tries to take a shortcut to get free "Tully Bux" to decorate with from an unknown website – everything is lost. She gave her login info to the website and now she can't get in. Teaching kids cyber safety through entertaining stories is a great way to get them to understand. Kids don't want to hear it from their parents – but a story that shows the consequences of those actions is genius. I can't wait to see where Derek takes Alicia and her friends next.
