Ron Roy

A Good Mystery
(8 year old reviewer) I really liked this book. It kept me interested until the end. THe best part was when the pups returned to the mother, but I won't tell you how that happens. You will just have to read it!

Slinky Malinki

Lynley Dodd, Mallinson Rendel

Tricycle Press, 2005

Slinky Malinki is AWESOME!!!
I'm 18 and a freshman in college and I was read this book all the time when I was a kid. I still love it. After a discussion about children's books, I remembered how much I'd loved this particular book and came to Amazon to buy a copy. The SLJ review made me sad. ...

I laughed, and I cried. This book is so good that I may actually keep it instead of taking it back for store credit.

The Thief

Megan Whalen Turner

Eos, 2006

Well written mythology; better twist at the end
Here's the deal: this is a realistic, well written fantasy with a logical, fully-fleshed world, including mythology. But the best part is the twist at the end.

The Quicksand Question (A Stepping Stone Book(TM))

Ron Roy

Random House Books for Young Readers, 2002

Excellent book!
It's my level of reading. It had some funny parts and it had some scary parts. My favorite part was when they were playing a game seeing if ducks would come over the bridge. Good book for a 2nd or 3rd grader.

Great to read about Kit again!
Another outstanding book by one of the best writers of the History Mystery Books published by American Girl about 10-12 years ago. Great to read further adventures about Kit Kittredge, the AG who grew up during the great depression. Also always enjoy a good mystery. ...

If your child or student doesn't like historical fiction, try them on this one. They won't be able to put it down. The book also has enough period details to make it great supplemental reading for an American history unit.

Sammy Keyes and the Hotel Thief

Wendelin Van Draanen

Yearling, 1998

Fantastic mystery!
Sammy Keyes is a fun, clever seventh grade sleuth. This first book in the "Sammy Keyes" series had me reading late into the night. As a children's author, I admire the way the author, Wendelin VanDraanen, is spot on with the voice, situations, and problems of a ...
