my 6yo and I liked that some of the other children in the class were helping puzzle through the clues - but then it shifted to just Cam, which was a bit disappointing. I did feel like this story provided the reader with a bit more to hang on to in terms of figuring out the mystery than some of the other books in the series.
Ages 6-9. Cam Jansen, famous for her photographic memory, investigates the case of the stolen school computers in this snowy mystery. Part of a large series of beginning chapter books, this Cam Jansen mystery brings fresh and witty dialogue as well as more complex human emotions to the table--including a class clown whose jokes nobody likes and a friend of Cam's who shows off her ability to solve mysteries when she isn't so sure. The black and white illustrations illicit a nostalgia for snowman ...more
Our girls just love the Cam Jansen series of stories and they kept asking me to read one more chapter over and over until we finished the book. It was an interesting story and although it was a simple mystery to solve, our girls loved it. Our oldest loves the memory challenges at the end, too. We are so glad that we discovered this series!
I didn't care much for this book. Even if I was a kid, I would have been bored to death. There is too much slow, repeat of what is going on and unnecessary "storytelling" (such as "Cam and Eric walked down the hall to their class. They entered the class and sat at their desks. They looked up at the teacher" etc.) and you never even find out who was the culprit behind the "Snowy Day Mystery". My kids sat through it, but I didn't enjoy it. I probably will not be read...more
One day Cam Jansen and her friend play a memory game to test Cam's memory. One of the things Cam memorized is a blue car coming out of the teachers parking lot. She even memorized the license plate! When she finds out that three computers are missing she tries solving the mystery. Will she solve the mystery or will the thief win?

it was chilldish and did not mack sence to me. It was allso a mystery so i did not like it. But was in good content and had ganes to prove you read and understood.
The mystery was interesting.
Stolen computers
Rebekah has enjoyed the early readers so much, that we moved up to the chapter books. We are half-way through, and it's been fun to see her wonder how Cam is going to solve the mystery.
-we just finished lastnight. I actually got a little bored with Cam, but Rebekah really enjoys them. The way she figured out who stole with computers was very clever.
