I read The Haunted Hotel to screen for my classroom. This is part of the A to Z Mysteries series--I thought kids would like the series, but it has never caught on with my students. I'm not sure why. This book is simply written, a little scary but not too scary, and a good stepping stone for first-time readers of chapter books. In the future, I am going to promote these books to the class so they catch some enthusiasm, and maybe even order a whole set.

The Haunted Hotel


The Haunted Hotel is of mystery and suspense, about 3 kids and their friend Mr. Linkletter the owner of Shangri-la, to find out the reasons why the guests are being scared away by some mysterious ghost. I myself have read a good number of books like this one but this is the best one I have ever read on mystery.

This book was great! My sister read it to me and when I saw a pickture in the book I was sooo scared. But that was when I was 7 so now I'm not scared. This book is about 3 kids Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose they find out that a hotel is honted! They get right to the case. Even though this book was short I enjoyed it.

My favorite character is Ruth Rose because she is a girl and I am a girl. The Haunted Hotel is about a ghost that haunted a hotel so that Mr Linkletter would have to sale his hotel. I think its good because it is a mystry book and I like mysteries. (Dicated by Isabella, typed by Daddy).

We are skipping around through the A to Z mysteries, mainly because of their availability in the library. Each story is complete on its own, so I don't think we're missing much going out of order. This was a decent story, plain old detective work; not too complicated of a mystery. Our girls really like this series.

There is a ghost at the Shangri-la Hotel. Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose are up to get rid of the ghost. They only have a matter of time until it is to late. If you want to know if they can get rid of the ghost, you should read this book.

My niece *and* my nephew both enjoyed this chapter book! Good read--scary without being overly so. The kids in the story are all great characters, and young children can easily relate to them.
