Customer Reviews

Love the whole series!

We homeschool and we’re covering American History. My son loved the calendar Mystery books and the A to Z Mysteries, so I got him these. He loved them. He read them all before we went to DC on an end of year trip! We didn’t make it to the Treasury, but it was still fun to have read about DC

Good Mystery, According to a 7-yr-old Boy

My son loves the books in this series. He particularly likes the way the books are tied to history and government; I think he's going to be a historian or history teacher someday. He is somewhat of a reluctant reader but he devours these books. I asked him to make a few comments about this book. This was his response. "It's good. A bunch of money gets stolen. But it's okay. They figure it out. It was fun." I like anything that gets my son to read. Mystery books my girls are currently devouring: The Message in the Transom (Cassie Kingston Mysteries) The Statue in Glen Park (Cassie Kingston Mysteries) The Painting of Swan Cove Island (Cassie Kingston Mysteries)

One of Ron Roy's Best Books

This was an interesting book that I liked a lot. There are two main characters who are kids: KC, the President's step-daughter, and Marshall, who lives in an apartment building near the Supreme Court. Someone robbed the Treasury, and they try to figure out who did it. They get a tour of the Treasury and a lot of help from a clone of the President. Kids who like the A-Z Mysteries will like this book. (As told by John, age 7.)

Great series for kids

My 8 yr old loves these books. He's read all 7 and can't wait for the next book to come out.
