This series of books are great independent reads for children who have an interest in mysteries. I came across these books in a third grade classroom, but at some levels I believe a second grader may be able to read them. This book would challenge the vocabulary of the reader introducing them to works they may have not seen before, but there are illustration throughout the book that may help the reader identify unknown words. I enjoyed reading these books, and I believe a student that finds an i...more
Cam is a girl who is known for having a photographic memory. When ever she looks at something she closes her eyes and says 'click'.
This is the ghostly mystery that she solves by remembering things while waiting for tickets to a concert. She helps the police by telling them what she remembers.
Now I am still reading Book Lust and would like to finish it soon. Maybe I just need to take some time off from work and do nothing but read.
Audio Tape- The concert they were standing in line for sounded so funny- I just couldn't picture preteens going to a concert for a pop group dressed up like dinosaurs (reminds one too much of Barney), but it was a good little mystery which of course Cam solves just like all these books.
This book is a great story for kids and I recommend it to teachers that teach K-2!!
My Fav One
We've read a lot of books in the Cam Jansen series of mysteries and we've really enjoyed them. This one was fairly similiar to most of the others, with an engaging narrative and a mystery that is not too easy to solve. We were disappointed that this book didn't have a quiz page at the end - we really like testing our memories. We've read this one a couple of times.
A book that will help students think critically and one can do a lot of projects on solving problems and mysteries.
I liked it because it was cool and because it had a ghost in it. I want to write about ghosts.
I think that ghost are scary because i think their real.
Someone dressed up as a ghost and scared an old man.
i loved these books to when i was young.
