family tradition

I just gave this book to my 11 yr old grandson for a good summer read. His father read it and loved it as a kid, and so did I.

A Book with Style

I read this book for a school assignment. It is a pretty good mystery book for children of ages 12 and over. This book is kind of confusing, but it’s still really good. This is a murder story about a person named Sam Westing being murdered. He has 16 heirs and they have to figure out who the murder is. One of the heirs is a bomber, one is a mistake, and one is the murderer. Who is the murderer?? This story will tell you………..
