The Hamlet Chronicles by Gregory Maguire is a children’s series set in Hamlet, Vermont, where the students of Miss Earth’s classroom run into one bizarre situation after another. The all-girl Tattletales Club and the all-boy Copycats compete and collaborate through encounters with giant prehistoric spiders, alien visitors, haunted hairdos, and more.
The seven books, published between 1994 and 2005, count down in their titles from Seven Spiders Spinning to One Final Firecracker. The series blends gentle comedy with light supernatural elements and is aimed at younger readers than Maguire’s adult novels.
