Meg Strikes Again!

Lucinda Landon knows how to whet a child's appetite for reading. She magically combines word and illustration as she brings the reader deeper and deeper into her Meg Mackintosh mysteries. Landon also stops at well planned intervals to have the reader go back over the clues, both discovered and yet to be discovered. She is amazing at the way she has the children self-monitoring their reading to see if they have all of the clues. She challenges them to be one step aheead of Meg as she uses photographs and her own illustrations to reveal the solution. The students in my fourth grade classroom can't get enough of these mysteries. A common question has been: "When will there be a new one?" I always have to purchase several copies because they love to share these books. They will be delighted to add this mystery to their monthly reading logs.
