The New Sugar Creek Gang series updates a classic Christian children’s franchise for modern readers. Sandy Dengler wrote seven books in 2001 that carry on the tradition of the original Sugar Creek Gang series by Paul Hutchens, which was a staple of Christian children’s literature for decades.
The books follow a group of young friends through various adventures, from mysteries (The Case of the Red Hot Possum, The Case of the Cold Turkey) to outdoor escapades (The Case of the Dinosaur in the Desert) to vacation stories (The Case of the Loony Cruise). The series maintains the wholesome, adventurous spirit of the originals while giving them a contemporary update.
