Book 57: Irrepressible Lucie Archer

Book 57: Irrepressible Lucie Archer, by Karen Fyke Kirchel, PublishAmerica 2006.   Upper Elementary

I can't actually review this book, because I wrote it, but I am going to recommend it: For anyone who has any middle-grade readers who might possibly be bored during the summer's extreme heat or afternoon thunderstorms.

Not only is this book a fun read: part adventure, part mystery, part story about family; but it references other great summer reads. Some are well-known, like Alice's Adventures in Wonderland or Treasure Island. Some less-known, like the Surprising Adventures of Baron Munchausen. All great fun and at least several hours worth of reading.

So while I can't review this book, you (or your child) can.
