5 out of 5 stars A Must for the Classroom Library   January 3, 2009
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I bought this for my 6th grade classroom library. It is perfect for sustained silent reading. I have the students read every day for the first few minutes of class. The students can read one mystery and use critical thinking skills and other comprehension skill to solve the mystery.

This is a must have for classroom libraries grades 3-7.

I purchase a lot of books off of a wish list for schools on a Native American reservation. As to their quality, I can only assume that if they were not good books, they would not be on the wish list.


4 out of 5 stars Great family fun!   February 23, 2008
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

My family and I (wife and 12 yr old son, 9 yr old daughter and 7 yr old daughter) enjoy reading the mysteries in a group and working together attempting to solve the mysteries. Although I think the mysteries would be very challenging for the average child 11 or under teens and up may enjoy the mysteries without becoming frustrated.


5 out of 5 stars So much fun   November 15, 2007
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

I love this book, it is so much fun. I love to use it when I am sitting around with friends; I give a puzzle and they all throw out questions trying to figure it out, feeding off of each other's insights. It is so fun the moment that one of them figures it out and everyone else says "Oh, I get it!" This book didn't disappoint, the puzzles are so clever and the drawings so cute. I highly recommend it.
