Loved this series as a kid and thought it would be fun to revisit now. This was a great read on a day of travel as it was light and fun and easy to get through. It all felt very familiar and while I haven't decided if I will read the whole series again I am tempted!

Though hardly a best-of-the-year or anything, this series is high-action and lots of fun for those who enjoy a good round-the-world history mystery! Collect the cards, check out the website, and you'll be hooked in no time. Pure fun.

I found this book to be both entertaining and educational. Reader have the opportunity to learn about Benjamin Franklin and places that were significant in his life such as Philadelphia and Paris. Riordan did an excellent job of keeping the story realistic while inserting some action and elements of danger, which kept my son continuously engaged. I felt like this series was equally as informative as the Who Is and Magic Tree House books, but it was presented in a way that children do not feel like they are receiving a history lesson. It as fun and exciting and allows children a chance to feel like they are part of an adventure.

Read this to son #1 at bedtime. The story was entertaining but probably was more of a book to read to yourself. A number of characters to keep track of at a rate of only 10 or so pages per night.

reviewing this series that i loved so much growing up. the audiobooks come with a complete set of distinct voices, music, special audio effects, and more. i can’t wait to revisit
giving this five stars because i’m now full of childhood whimsy and that’s what 11 year old anna would’ve done
