Customer Reviews

Good for kids...

The writing is for kids, but the new series is a nice update. My 9yo son love the new over the old. I still like the writing in the older series. Would recommend. Not expensive, OK soft cover.

Another great series book for all ages

The third book in the Tom Swift Young Inventor continues the strong writing style and plots from the first two titles. Science fact and science fiction are nicely blended, with strong narrative to keep the reader interested to the end. I liked the fact that Tom's sister, Sandy, is a major character in this book. Though the "mystery" was easily solved early on (at least to me!) the atmospere and action was still entertaining. I am looking forward to the next one!
