Kids Books - Detectives

I LOVED LOVED LOVED this book and this was the reason I kept reading the series. I was SUPER sad when I couldn't find the last book! :'( So basically there is this regular teenage girl-wait, what did you say? Oh sorry *cough cough* regular teenage SPY girl. Cammie Morgan's mother is the headmistress of Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women. (A spy school in other words) The girls there know a TON of different languages, take tai kwon do in P.E, and a lot of other cool stuff. But there is one thing that the school HASN'T trained Cammie for-dealing with a regualar teen boy crush.

Back in 1890s, there is two children, their names are, Maks Geless, the 13-years-old and one girl who just saved Maks` life from the gang called, Plug Uglies Gang, her name is Waddah "Willa" Brunswick. Many months before Maks met Willa, her father, Mr. Brunswick left her, after Willa`s mother`s death, so I think that Willa and Mr. Brunswick are father and daughter for each other. The name of Waddah is from Germany, then when Willa moved to U.S. her name is changed to the name of Willa. Maks` sister, Emma, was arrested, taken to the jail, because some rich man, (possibly Mr. Brunswick) accused her of stealing the watch, for which Emma didn`t, so, the Geless family relied on Maks and Willa about solving the mystery of Emma`s arrest. Maks and Willa met an detective, Mr. Donock, who is almost deaf, was gravely ill but he did teach Maks how to be a boy detective. There`s a gang what is called "Plug Uglies Gang", its leader, Bruno, and his gang was after the "newsie" (the newspaper kids). Then in the ending, the two men, Bruno and Mr. Brunswick was killed, Bruno shot and killed Mr. Brunswick and Mr. Packwood (Mr. Donock`s detective friend) shot and killed Bruno, in the hotel what called, Waldorf Hotel. This book shows the readers about 1890s and the children having to work, to earn some money for their families. I rate this 5 stars and I will totally recommend this book!

Double Identity is a enjoyable book with slice of life with a little bit of drama, mystery, sci-fi, and a unique story. The book starts slow but it gets more interesting later on, so even if it starts off boring, don’t stop reading it. Sometimes the story gets melodramatic but the drama goes away faster than most books and just having time to relax. If you have ever been interested in Margret Haddix’s books, then I recommend Double Identity first, if you are a fan of Haddix’s books but you haven’t read Double Identity, then I recommend it. I thought this was a good book, but I did have a few problems with it, the first one being is what I mentioned earlier about how it starts off slow, I was really bored at the beginning and I stopped reading it, but I decided to give it another chance and read the book, Another thing that bothered me was that there was like supposed to be a shocking truth and were supposed to be all shocked but everyone saw it coming, the hints were everywhere that you could already find it out in the middle which you find this out near the end of the story, my last problem with this book is some of the characters, their okay but I found a lot of characters useless and they didn’t really help anything, but overall, this book is worth checking out, and I really enjoyed Double Identity, so you should try reading it

Omg!!! I don't like books very much, but this is the second time i have read this book, i finished it in 3 days, and it was just as wonderful as the first time i read it! All the books in this series are AMAZING!!! There is never a "boring" part in this book! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time I was reading this intense creative story! i couldn't put it down!

This book rules! It is so fun to take quizzes to find out which member of Team Cousteau you are, plot an adventure on a map, and more! I do recommend all of you to read this amazing book! Thank you so much, National Geographic kids!

I like it its cool and an amazing book. 😀😀😀

I read it and was not fond of it. Not the best thing I have read

12-year-old Zoe Washington's life seems perfect until the letter arrives. Now she must learn more about her birthfather, become friends again with someone, and enter a baking competition. This book is a heartwarming tale about friendship and love. If you like mystery, this is the book for you.

I've read all of these books by Carly Anne West, and they're SOOO GOOD! They are a really good thriller/horror series. Missing Pieces (the one I'm reviewing) is the first one, but my all time favorite is Grave Mistakes. I would also recommend that one too.

If you like deadly books and if you like to imagine your the bait in a tragic acciedent then pick this book it is about YOU in the book and your best friend is the target but the kidnapper got the wrong girl and maybe the missing girl is probaly dead. You may never know so read ths book!!!! well, only if you could take the challenge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
