Cam Jansen's real name is Jennifer, but her nickname is Cam (short for camera) because she has a photographic memory. Using her "camera," she and her friends discover the mystery of the winning carnival prizes at the dime toss booth. Appropriate for 3-4th graders who like a little mystery.
We all enjoyed this book in the Cam Jansen series. The storyline is interesting and the mystery isn't too hard to solve. It's a short book, so we were able to read it all at one sitting, which is a bonus as we graduate to longer and longer chapter books. Our girls really enjoy Cam Jansen books!

Rebekah and I just finished this one tonight - she is starting to be able to "guess" who is behind the mystery, and she's getting pretty good!
I read it for a third grade project...WHAT A HORRIBLE BOOK!
it was awesome
another great book in the series for young readers moving to chapter books.
There was this boy and a girl and they taped a magnet on the back of the dime toss board. They put this metal wrapper on the coins and they slided it on and it stopped on the magnet. Cam saw that they were wearing disguises and they were going to sell them.
