Weekly Round-up: The Siege of Macindaw and In Search of Watson
Posted by panaura on December 18th, 2009
This week I read Ranger’s Apprentice #6: The Siege of Macindaw by John Flanagan and Sherlock Holmes and the Baker Street Irregulars #3: In Search of Watson by Tracy Mack and Michael Citrin. Both books are very engaging and will leave you craving the other
books in the series.
Having never read the first five books in the series, Ranger’s Apprentice #6: The Siege of Macindaw was a little bit hard to follow at first. But the characters soon showed their quirky personalities, and the story took shape. It’s hilarious and action-packed–the perfect combination.
Sherlock Holmes and the Baker Street Irregulars #3: In Search of Watson is an excellent mystery. It follows a team of kid detectives who aid Sherlock Holmes in his investigations. What’s great about this series is that the books are short, to the point and really easy to follow. They’re great fpr kids aged 9 to 12 who love a good mystery/adventure.
