Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library by Chris Grabenstein

5.0

I am so sad that I kept passing this book up! I've been drawn to the cover from the first time I ever saw it but never got around to picking it up and reading it. What a mistake! I loved this book! I finished it and immediately handed it to my 11 year old daughter and told her to read it. I loved the integration of classic libraries, board games, and modern technology. Sure it was a fantastical library that wouldn't be possible without a very rich benefactor, but what a wonderful adventure! Even being the old mom that I am, I loved this adventure and found myself not able to put this book down until I figured out the final clue! Yes, the bonus clue being the final one! I highly recommend this read for everyone, no matter the age. I am sad that I'm not still teaching at the moment as this would be put immediately to the top of my list for every student! I can't wait to pick up the next book in the series and can't wait for the third book to come out. If you haven't read this, you should. You won't regret it!
