Customer Reviews

One of my favorite Mandie books!

This was one of my favorite Mandie books because Joe was in it and I like the ones with him in it.Mandie is going home for Christmas Holidays and does'nt know what the big surprise is that her mother and Uncle John have for her.What the surprise is?I'll never tell!

Very Surprising Book!

Mandie, the irresistible youngster is on a roll again, and she is terribly excited about going home for the Christmas holidays. But something is wrong. An air of mystery hangs over the house, not allowing her to enjoy her vacation. On top of that, her mother and uncle have left for a few days, and she is itching to find out what the secret is.But when her mother finally tells her, Mandie is stunned. Her mother is going to have a baby! What will Mandie's reaction be? Read this book and find out!My Comments:This book makes for a very interesting read. I especially liked the part when the presents keep disappearing. I honestly could not guess who did it, and I am usually pretty good at guessing who the culprit is.But I still think it's pretty silly that Mandie and Celia are so scared of mice. For pity's sake, they have got on more clothes...well, I would have good reason to be scared of them because I usually go around barefoot, but they got boots, stockings, the works! They should get a grip.

Awesome!

This book is so great because I just love Mandie and I have every Mandie book. My reccomedation is: Read it!

Her family is keeping a secret from her, but not for long!

Mandie is home for Christmas and she can tell that everyone is keeping a secret from her. Joe tells Mandie that she will not like the secret, but Mandie is still determined to find it out. Meanwhile someone keeps unwrapping the presents Mandie is going to give to people. Mandie needs to solve these mysteries.
