Customer Reviews

New York City !

When Mandie and her friends visit Jonathon in NYC they reveal the mystery that Mandie has been wanting to solve - her grandmother's love story , of course ! Will Mandie find out what happened between her grandmother and Jonathon's father ? Find out exactly what takes place in the new york secret . I would definitely say that this book has a great story . And I loved the suspense and captivating moments . With the great detail of NYC back in the early 1900s , I could actually picture everything perfectly in my mind . What did happen to Polly in this book ? But I must admit that I am glad she wasn't there to spoil Mandie's time . I gladly give you , Mrs.Leppard , all five stars .

Great book, Mrs. Leppard!!!

This book is about when Mandie, Celia, Joe, and Mrs. Taft go to see Jonathan in New York. He has sent Mandie a note telling her that he has found a mystery. But he and his family have gone to Long Island. She has to wait to find out what it is about,and if you know Mandie you'll know how she feels!! I think it was very iteresting how Jonathan's father and Mrs. Taft broke up. I mean,why would Mandie's grandmother care so much about the painting..... Anyway, this book was really good! I would reccomend it to everyone!!

Page Turning

This is one of the best Mandie Books. I've read this series since I was little and this is just another add to the collection of master works. In this story the end will be most suprising and leave you pondering what's next. Unexpected suprise! Tells all about the history of Mandie's Grandmother and Johnathan's father...

NYC

It is summer 1901 and Mandie accompanied with her best friends Celia and Joe, along with grandmother Mrs. Taft are going to visit the Guyers in New York. Adding to the suspense of just going to New York, Mandie had received a telegram from Jonathan saying he'd discovered a big secret from the past. Could it be related to the visible animosity between Jonathan's dad Lindall Guyer and Mrs. Taft? Mandie can't wait to find out. Unfortunately when they arrive in New York they learn that Jonathan and the others had just left to go to Long Island for a few days. Can Mandie stand the suspense?This new Mandie book I felt wasn't as good as the others, but I'm sure the next book Mandie and the Night Thief will be much better as Mandie and her friends go to visit the Pattons. Of course the animosity between Senator Morton and Lindall Guyer will be fun to watch. As Jonathan said:"May the best man win!"
