Review of the Nervous Newsboy
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This book is definitely a great mystery for kids, since its main characters are kids our age, and the topic isn't too heavy. It has some humor in it, and the characters are easy to relate to. Also, the narrator shares his opinions with the reader, which makes you more empathetic with the characters. I'd definitely read more of the series.
