The Disappearing Bike Shop

This is a good mystery book to read. Its about a disappearing and reappearing bike shop in a vacant lot. A kid name Tyler and his best friend Freckle see a bike shop walking on the way home from school. They have walked that street many years and not once have they ever seen a bike shop. They don't know if they ever will get brave enough to go into Mr.Quigley's bike shop. They promised Mr.Quigley to not tell anybody about his secret bike shop. What you don't know is that Tyler is in for a rough time. He gets partnered with a bully at school name Viking. They have to work on a Leonardo da Vinci project. As viking starts to hear about the bike shop Tyler and Freckle start to think about artist and inventors and think a wizard type shopkeeper could be Vinci himself. As the book starts to turn into a more mystery book Mr.Quigley gets more suspicious. Woodruff is trying to trick you in some points. You will have to find out for yourself to know what happens next in the book.
