This is a blog of reading that I am recording books and summaries that I complete this summer. I am also asking for the help of students to help find a mystery. If you have a mystery to add, click on the mystery search link below. Look through my summaries and responses of books read and feel free to comment.

Book 15, Stolen Children
It has been awhile since I have read a book by Peg Kehret and I had to wonder why as I read this one. It was filled with suspense. It was a real page-turner. From the title, you can tell that it must deal with a kidnapping. What else could Stolen Children be about? A young girl, Amy is babysitting for three year-old Kendra. Both are kidnapped, but the younger one is held for ransom. The threat of death is possible for Amy. She keeps her wits. I would consider this a mystery. There is a crime, motive and clues that really hold the reader's attention. Another thing that is present are bystanders. People who have a little bit of information that had they acted upon, could have made a difference. Being a bystander is really not ok. Look at the bystanders in this book and let me know what you think.
