Reviews


(3 stars)

Could these two girls be any more naive? For me this book was too frustrating however I had to listen to the end... to ensure they muddled to the correct end. It was an interesting listen.


(5 stars)

This is a great mystery and very nicely read. I guess you could say it's something like a Nancy Drew and as appropriate for young readers as that would be. It is enough different, though, to offer a little variety from the other series.

Great Reading, fun story

Another fun, lighthearted mystery from Mildred A Wirt. Reading was also done very well with different voices for the various characters.
