This is a dramatic and exciting adventure for kids. The story is interesting and the illustrations are simple, but expressive. We enjoyed reading this story together.
This is a book that is great for problem solving as well as prediction. I would recommend this book during a mystery themed week for example. Being Reading Rainbow endorsed makes this book all the worth while.
Good little book.
This was a Reading Rainbow book. I don't remember much about it besides the what you can tell from the illustrations.
