When Jordan finds a treasure map at Camp Dakota, the hunt for hidden treasure is on! As the campers follow the map, they discover that time has changed some of the landmarks. They'll need to rely on what they know about rocks and changes to Earth's surface to have any chance of success. Will the old drawing still lead them to the treasure? And why is Jordan acting so weird?

Miss 3 is showing interest in graphic novel type books from her point of view they have lots of pictures and fun speech bubbles to point to. They're a bit annoying some times for me to read (since as an adult we can scan and assimilate; pointing to each speaker gets tiresome) but this one worked out well. She really likes mysteries and detectives, she likes science too; this incorporates both :) I enjoyed the little science side bars about geology and fossils; I imagine those might interest older kids.

Ok this one was pretty bad...I liked all the fun earth science facts.

Good book for elementary aged kids. Teaches science without feeling educational.
