Tricia's trouble delightful reading

This fourth book in the Twelve Candles Club Series focuses on Tricia and her trouble. Her father has moved out and she wants him back home again. On top of that two expensive paintings are stolen during a party where they are working. A lack of evidence causes the police to focus on the Club. Tricia and friends are determined to find the real thief and to trust that God will bring her family back together. Schulte's theology is evident throughout the book as Tricia is led to seek and trust in God for her family. Clearly aimed at 8-12 year old Evangelical girls, this book succeeds at blending life and spirituality without becoming too preachy. Her primary focus is on how to obey the commandment to honour your parents if they are not acting honourably. Tricia is angry with her father for leaving and cannot see why she should honour him. Shulte deals with this satisfactorily for the age level of the reader. The English level is excellent and obviously the author knows what she is doing in writing serial novels for this genre.
