I Love Historical Fiction and I Love a Good Mystery
This is one of the few historical fiction books I have read that stay so accurate to the historical time period while being entertaining and enthralling. I would recommend this for students in Grade 6 and up. It would be a wonderful book to add to literature circles with any of the following themes: Friendship; Mystery; Historical Fiction; Suspense.
