Mindy Burton is a character in the thirty-fourth Goosebumps book, Revenge of the Lawn Gnomes. She is the older sister ofJoe Burton.

History

Mindy's father is obsessed with gardening. He and their neighbor Mr. McCall are in a constant battle over who's garden looks the best. With the annual garden show soon approaching, both men are determined to win first place.

One day, her father drags her and her brother Joe on a trip to Lawn Lovely to purchase some new lawn ornaments for the front yard. He is immediately drawn to a pair of lawn gnomes. Mindy is repulsed at the sight of them — they look evil and mischievous. She begs her father not to buy them, but he does so anyway. As Mindy's summer continues, strange things begin to happen. Mr. McCall's garden is vandalized — his precious melons are smashed to pieces. All signs seem to point to Joe, but he denies having anything to do with it.

Joe comes to the realization that the gnomes must be alive and causing all the mischief. He tries to convince his parents and Mindy, but they don't believe him. Eventually, Joe's suspicions about the gnomes are confirmed when Mindy sees them for herself.

The gnomes trick Mindy and her brother into going into the basement of Lawn Lovely, where they say several other gnomes are being held against their will. The gnomes quickly turn on them, but Joe is able to freeze them in their tracks with the sound of a dog whistle.
