More than Meets the Eye
An engaging mystery geared to preteen readers, I found myself enjoying this book as much as I did mysteries from the school library in my bygone years. I found the plot and characters interesting and the events well paced. This story is similar to a young version of the Thomas Crown Affair, where a painting can definitely hold more than meets the eye. The secrets revealed make for a fun ending.
