Ivy and Bean go searching for treasure—the final story in the Ivy and Bean early chapter book series!
It's Career Day at Emerson Elementary School, and all the students have to choose what they want to be when they grow up. No problem. Best friends Ivy and Bean already have that all figured out. At least, they thought so, until they met Herman the Treasure Hunter. Now everyone in the second grade is looking for treasure—and finding it. Everyone except Ivy and Bean, that is. They need to get out their shovels and turn up some treasure on the double!
Ivy and Bean make Career Day—and every day—so much fun with their mischievous antics.

Ivy and Bean are very different. Bean is loud and wild and goofy. She loves to be involved in games and poke her nose in other people's business. Ivy is quiet and full of ideas. She spends most of her time learning how to be a witch. Each girl thinks the other one is weird. Each girl thinks she could never be friends with the other. Especially because their parents keep nagging them about it...
But sometimes opposites can become the best of friends. For Ivy and Bean, their differences mean that they have more fun together than they could ever have separately. It also means that, together, they do more wacky things than any one kid could ever dream up. The 'Ivy and Bean' books are about the adventures — and disasters — created by this unlikely pairing. Sweet and funny with delightful illustrations by Sophie Blackall, these books are a perfect tempter for emerging or reluctant readers aged 6 and older.
