Mike's Mystery Listener Reviews
-
" The only reason I didn't give this volume 3 stars was the character Mike. He seemed very whiny and I hop he won't recur in other volumes. Great story though. Well written and easy to read. "

" I am still reading the book so fair it is ok "
— Roberto, 1/6/2014 -
" The Boxcar Children = most read series between the ages of 6 and 9 for me. I think of these fondly. Every child should read this series. "

" Mike's mother likes to bake pies. "
— Hannah, 12/16/2013 -
" My 7 year old likes this series and I can see why - children who solve mysteries that adults can't; children who get to act like adults and do things like buy stoves, etc. --- but for me, this book was kind of lame. Definitely written in the 1950's. "

" I just finished this book tonight with my kids and we love the Boxcar Books...they are so fun and simple for children to read and yet they are entertaining enough for parents to enjoy while reading them to their children. We will continue...there are many more to be read! "

" The kids liked it anyway. Very simple story. "
— David, 2/28/2013 -
" In this book I was glad that Mike showed up but he was nicer than before. I think that this mystery was very mysterious, but it showed the kind qualities of the Boxcar Children. "
