The Case of the Reluctant Reader.

I bought the whole series at a book fair last year and they were a little too advanced for my son. I pulled them out for the start of summer this year and my just turned 7 year old has devoured them. He's read three in three days and can't wait to keep going. (This is the boy that had to be FORCED to read for 15 minutes.) I just wish there were more of them! I was really impressed to figure out just today that each book includes a bible verse. The verse reflect the moral theme to each book. It led to some interesting discussion questions about why the author picked that verse for the book.

It was great after all!

My seven-year-old son said that when he first got it, he kept on reading the first chapter and thinking it was awful. Then one day, he read the whole thing and thought it was great!
