A good romp of a mystery
*The School Librarian on 'Sherlock Bones and the Case of the Crown
Jewels'*
A very interesting concept, slightly reminiscent of the 'Choose
your own Adventure' books. This will appeal to key stage 2 readers,
especially those who may have reading difficulties and encourages
collaboration among readers, with one reading the story and the
other solving the puzzles.
*The School Librarian on 'Sherlock Bones and the Curse of the
Pharaoh’s Mask'*
This is a highly appealing story with gentle wit that will appeal
to KS2. Bigwood's delightful line drawings illustrate the plot
without distracting from reading. A highly recommended addition for
small group reading as well as for more independent
individuals.
