The Treasure of the Lost Lagoon

I smell a rat. Sid Rat, that is. In this enchanting Otto andUncle Tooth adventure, Otto tries to teach his friend, Ducky Doodle,the values of honesty and good, clean fun. Sid Rat has other ideas, however. When Otto and Doodle discover a sunken treasure chest, Sid Rat and his gang of weasals trick Doodle into believing that they will help him retrieve the treasure from the bottom of Lost Lagoon and let Doodle claim it all for himself. The plan changes, of course, as soon as Doodle brings Sid to the place where the treasure is buried. Will Doodle's true friends, Otto and Uncle Tooth, save him? What will they find in the treasure chest? It is worth reading this charming tale to find out. The story combines just the right amount of mystery and adventure, so kids will be intrigued, but not necessarily frightened. It also touches upon such lessons as friendship, hard work, honesty and responsibility. The story is perfect for the 6-8 year old set. It is simple, yet exciting. As a parent, I appreciated the fact that the story amused, yet taught valuable lessons. My daughter, on the other hand, liked the story because it was fun to read and it kept her in suspense. We both enjoyed the story because it left my daughter wanting to READ more. We would both definitely recommend it!
