"Please get more Max & Maddie mysteries. What is an impostor?" — Thomas (5 out of 5 stars)
"Please get more Max & Maddie mysteries. What is an impostor?"
" One of the better early chapter books we've read lately - we listened to it, actually, and the audio book was quite good. This age reader is a new world for me, so I don't have much to compare it to, yet... "
" Great Book for Second Grade. Alexander McCall Smith has a wonderful way with words that makes me want to read out loud! This will be the first Read-Aloud of the year for my class! "
" 2nd grade chapter book with a good story--children are hired to solve a mystery involving a bank robbery and a dog--in Switzerland. Exotic location for most 2nd graders, but individual kids will either like learning about somewhere else or they won't. "
" This is a kid's chapter book. For the age category, it really should have 3 stars. Cute. "
