Personal Thoughts: I'll admit it. I read this book when I was a tween (way back when tweens were not called "tweens"; they were just "kids"). I managed to finally find a copy when I was twelve, but I still liked it. While younger readers will probably enjoy it more than older ones, it still manages to provide an entertaining mystery.
