5.0

I remembered this book fondly, but after utterly failing to get my kids to read it on their own, I started re-reading it with them aloud. Now, as a mom of a strong-minded 11 year old girl and a loyal 9 year old boy, I love the book even more! The arguments that Claudia and Jaime sound exactly like the fights my kids have. This one really stands the test of time.
