Review Detail

As a 6th Grade Language Arts teacher, I am always in search of books to interest my students. I read both this book and its sequels, "Thirteen Curses", in about 2 days. They were fun, fast-paced, and not too complicated. There were elements of fantasy, mystery, and adventure all mixed into one quick read. I recommended these books to my students, and those who took me up were not disappointed. They eagerly read each book and were sad when I told them "Thirteen Secrets" would not be out in the U.S. until summer. But now they have something to look forward to reading. I highly recommend this book for upper elementary to middle school students.
