The Mysterious Benedict Society Part II
I really like the characters in this book. They each have a unique personality. Constance lives at the public library. Kate and Sticky are stowaways on trains and boats. Reynie lives at an orphanage. So what do runaways and orphans have in common? They all answered the newspaper ad to take a special test. I love the tests they have to take. They are true puzzles and each character uses a different technique to solve the puzzle. Mr. Benedict and his crew have them find their way through obstacle courses and secret rooms, too.
Fearless Kate, Timid Sticky, Cranky Constance and Thoughtful Reynie are told they are “the only hope.” What is their “dangerous mission?” You’ll have to read to page 100 to find out. It’s really creepy, too. Like someone you can’t see whispering in your ear at night when you are in bed. And to keep the story going… kidnappers are after the kids. Thank goodness they have the secret rooms to hide in.
