This is my favorite book. Although it was originally written for children/tweens, I think will always be relevant to me no matter what age. The story follows protagonist Salamanca Tree Hiddle as she travels across state borders with her grandparents to visit her mother, all the while telling the extravagant tales of Phoebe Winterbottom and Ms. Cadaver. Not many books are as perfectly written as this one, but Creech does it once again, pulling at your heartstrings and making your spirit sing Salamanca's story.

Got hooked on the Tracy Crosswhite series this spring and I’ve just about finished all of them. We all knew there was something off about the domestic violence/self defense claim with the beginning case, that lady turned out to be a psycho :( The case of Kimi was so unbearable tragic. No spoilers but man...the reveal of how she died may be one of the more messed up murders in this detective series. Kimi did not deserve any of that!!!!

The tale of the redemption of a sociopath through the power of love and protecting children.

I liked the quizzes and games at the end.

I LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH 10000000000000000000000000000000000000/10 LOVE SO MUCH

This book is an excellent read for anyone who loves mysteries. The two Hardy Brothers, Frank and Joe, take on a case for Stanwide Mining Company, involving missing shipments of precious metals. A cross-country chase in pursuit of the thieves, and tracking down the ghost of a Stanwide pilot, are all part of this exciting story. I highly recommend this book.

This story teaches you to kind to others.

It was good

Cool! They dropped the flag so early.

It was one of the good ones. And I like how they made the books long.
