A FANTASTIC MYSTERY/ADVENTURE FOR MIDDLE READERS

THIS IS AN EXCELLENT INTRODUCTION TO THE NEW DANA GIRLS MYSTERY SERIES WRITTEN BY THE SAME AUTHOR OF THE NANCY DREW BOOKS, CAROLYN KEENE. THE PREVIOUS DANA GIRLS STORIES WERE WRITTEN IN THE 1930'S AND INCLUDED 16 BOOKS. THIS NEW DANA SERIES BEGAN IN 1963 WITH THIS PARTICULAR TITLE AND ENDED IN 1979 AFTER THE 15TH BOOK WAS PUBLISHED. THIS BOOK INTRODUCES US TO 2 SISTERS WHO, LIKE NANCY DREW & HER FRIENDS, SOLVE MYSTERIES. THE DANA'S HAVE A SIMILAR FAMILY BACKGROUND AS NANCY, FOR THEY TOO WERE ORPHANED AS CHILDREN. WE MEET FOR THE FIRST TIME THEIR LOVING RELATIVES WHO CARE FOR THEM, ALONG WITH THEIR SUPERSTITIOUS MAID WHO IS FUN TO OBSERVE. MIDNIGHT VISITORS, CLOAKED IN BLACK, AND SECRET PANELS MAKE THIS MYSTERY FUN TO READ. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS ENTIRE DANA GIRLS SERIES TO INTERESTED READERS BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE ARE SURPRISED TO HEAR THAT KEENE WROTE SOMETHING OTHER THAN NANCY DREW!!
