Ich fand die Sprache sehr sperrig für ein Kinderbuch。 Die Rätsel konnte selbst ich teilweise nicht lösen。 Würde es daher unter 10 Jahren nicht empfehlen。

The amount of teamwork and laughs that this one gifted my family is awesome！ It's the perfect format for a read out loud because it demands participation from the audience。 The fun didn't end when the book did because there's more surprises online that accompany it。 Loved it！ The amount of teamwork and laughs that this one gifted my family is awesome！ It's the perfect format for a read out loud because it demands participation from the audience。 The fun didn't end when the book did because there's more surprises online that accompany it。 Loved it！ 。。。more

Overall， interesting idea to include the reader in solving the mystery。 This made it difficult to put the book down。

A "Solve -Them-Yourself-Mysteries-Adventure"。 I think my 9 year old grandson might like it。 Not much to the characters （your typical girl， overweight boy， and asthmatic main character）， but it's divided into nice short chapters with visual clues to solve as you read through。 Not great， but okay。 A "Solve -Them-Yourself-Mysteries-Adventure"。 I think my 9 year old grandson might like it。 Not much to the characters （your typical girl， overweight boy， and asthmatic main character）， but it's divided into nice short chapters with visual clues to solve as you read through。 Not great， but okay。 。。。more

Review dictated by an 8-year old boy:Three words: great， awesome， amazing！I loved the picture mysteries to solve at the end of every chapter， though I don’t like that the clues are backwards and upside down because it made them hard to read。 My favorite puzzle was the one at the end of chapter 25 with the riddle and the tiles。 My favorite part was the group hug at the end， but I thought the Dark Guardians were a little scary。 I’m not sure kids should be allowed to use dynamite。 I can’t wait to r Review dictated by an 8-year old boy:Three words: great， awesome， amazing！I loved the picture mysteries to solve at the end of every chapter， though I don’t like that the clues are backwards and upside down because it made them hard to read。 My favorite puzzle was the one at the end of chapter 25 with the riddle and the tiles。 My favorite part was the group hug at the end， but I thought the Dark Guardians were a little scary。 I’m not sure kids should be allowed to use dynamite。 I can’t wait to read the next book。 Please write more quickly！ 。。。more

My kids are seven and ten years old and really liked this book。 They liked the mysteries that needed to be solved in each chapter。 We couldn't put the book down。 The illustrations were really good at showing the evidence needed to solve each chapter's mystery and helped solve the puzzles。 My kids are seven and ten years old and really liked this book。 They liked the mysteries that needed to be solved in each chapter。 We couldn't put the book down。 The illustrations were really good at showing the evidence needed to solve each chapter's mystery and helped solve the puzzles。 。。。more

This book was awesome！I really liked all the problems that we got to solve。 It was super fun！ I will be sure to read the second one。

Sure enough， this book had aimed 8-12 age groups， though nothing makes sense at all。 This book is just a gross combination of interests of that age groups， such as pirates and treasures。 On the other side， the illustration was good enough to make the book better。 I personally was very disappointed and unhappy towards this book。 I am not going to recommend this book to the others。

My son and I had really fun reading this one and solving all the little puzzles。 Reminded me a bit of the good old 80s Point&Click-Adventures and a bit of the Goonies

Absolutely great book to read to 4th and 5th graders。 My kids learned new words to increase vocabulary。 Words are underlined and definition was in small print above 。 Three kids are the protagonist and must find the treasure hidden by the pirate Lotterlulu。 Each charter has a beautiful illustrated picture that hisd the clue。 The is also a hint button to help find the item。 It was good for kids working together to find the solution to each hint。

My kids loved it！I read this book aloud to my 7 and 5 year olds。 They really loved the illustrations and trying to find the clues throughout the story。 My son enjoyed solving the mystery alongside the characters。 My daughter said it was exciting and adventurous。

My sister and I used to love ‘Adventures of the Black Hand Gang’ and searched for over 30 years for a book that was similar。 This book far surpasses Black Hand Gang！ My 12 yr old son and I read 2 -4 chapters a night and tried to solve the clues together。 I would recommend this book to age 8 to 108！ I cannot wait til Sept 2020 when the 2nd book comes out。

Deduction: This book makes it fun。I like the way the book makes you think and doesn't frustrate you by making too hard at first。 The puzzles increase in difficulty and the reader has some experience in observation and deduction。 The hints are just right。 I believe all ages can enjoy the good。 Deduction: This book makes it fun。I like the way the book makes you think and doesn't frustrate you by making too hard at first。 The puzzles increase in difficulty and the reader has some experience in observation and deduction。 The hints are just right。 I believe all ages can enjoy the good。 。。。more
