Customer Reviews

Loved all the Capital Mysteries

We homeschool and we’re covering American History. My son loved the calendar Mystery books and the A to Z Mysteries, so I got him these. He loved them. He read them all before we went to DC on an end of year trip!

Excellent, fun, relaxing reading for my grade schoolers

I'm writing this on behalf of my son (9 years old), who has been reading all of Ron Roy's books since he first discovered them at age 6 or 7. He really enjoys these books, has read every one that I've purchased for him no less than 6-8 times apiece (and he owns more than 20!). I buy the new ones as soon as they come out, and he digs in immediately. To me, the only downside to the books is that he finishes each one in about an hour, so if he only read them once each, I wouldn't purchase them as frequently as I do. Regardless, I'd rather have him reading a short but fun book than watching tv or playing video games. My daughter, who is now 12, used to read them voraciously as well. She enjoyed them very, very much too, but is "too old" for them now!
