Great Story

My mom got me this book from the weekly reader book club in the 1960's. I'm now 52 years old and still pull it out and read it every now and then. I loved it, my son loved it and one of these day's it will go to one of the grandkids. I was so surprised to find it back in print. It's one of those timeless stories.

Great!

Chancy and the Grand Rascal was a book that my mom enjoyed reading and one that I enjoy too! The story kind of takes you in with it! I loved it!!

Fleischman delivers another one . . .

In the same light as the delightful Mr Mysterious & Co, this time the author of The Whipping Boy takes us to Tom Sawyer country for a delightful look at swindlers, liars, and cheats, and the good people who rise above it all.

Wow.

This is one the best books I've ever read. It sucks you in so quickly that it's unbelievelable. Great storyline, great dialouge, and great characters are the things that make this book up. Thanks to the mastermind Sid Fleischman.....
