I am the mother of a 7 year old boy who has a lot of difficulty with reading. We received this book from a book give away at our school's birthday party for Dr. Seuss. It was a life saver. It had a good enough story and mystery to keep my son interested even when he had trouble with words. It was the first chapter book that he finished the whole thing. Since then we have bought The Absent Author and The Bald Bandit and they were both read in record time by my son. His birthday is coming up and we are hoping to receive more of the series. If you are looking to find a series of books that will capture a child attention look no further.

Overall, Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose's 25th adventure was exciting to read. I thought that the details were too sparse in some parts but that was made up for by the adventureous and mysterious parts. Yellow Yacht was one of the best books in the A to Z Mysteries series in my opinion.
