I want something fun to read. As I enjoy books for younger readers, I thought I'd give this two-book series a go - the second book is entitled "The Timekeeper". Besides, as I write for this age group, it's a great way to do research too.

Anyway, Finders Keepers is about a boy who agrees to enter a TV show competition. The thing is the people running the show live on the other side of the barrier and Patrick has to go through to that world in order to play.

I recall the TV show better than the book but I liked both as a kid. To this day, I have a fondness for the name "Estelle" and whenever I lose something, particularly socks, I always joke that it must have gone to "the other side". I'm usually the only one who gets the reference, but that's okay. Finders Keepers has pretty much convinced me that the washing machine is masquerading as a time barrier.

This was a really good book for younger readers. I was very quickly gripped by the plot, and while some of the clues (and the twists) were somewhat obvious, the pleasure was in no way diminished. I think Kate will enjoy reading this one to herself soon!

This book is about a boy who has been chosen for a TV program named "Finders Keepers". This program gives a puzzle to the boy "patrick" he has to find out what the puzzle is talking about and find the thing that puzzle is describing. I

That's not a bad book though...good for entertaining...But the story is not as srong as Deltora or Rodda's other books...But nut bad to read.

فضای کتاب فضای رویاهای بچه های اواخر دهه 60 و اوایل دهه 70 بود، چون الان دیگه تو هر خونه ای یه کامپیوتر هست، اما در کل بد نبود.

This is a nice friendly book for any reader. The author does a nice job of making all the characters enjoyable and the plot is very interesting. It follows a young boy who finds himself competing in a game show that involves another dimension from his own. No morals or deep thinking is forced on you, it's just a nice relaxing story.

This was a great book - highly entertaining and age appropriate for 10 year olds. It makes you think whether you misplace items - or whether they are taken.
