Format:Paperback
We listened to many audio books on a long car journey - and every time we finished one there were shouts for "Puzzle for the Secret Seven" again. It was popular with everyone in the car. The dramatisation was excellent; the rhymes were particularly funny. It has an old-fashioned charm with a good, compelling storyline!
Format:Audio CD
This was part of a Christmas present for a visually impaired 9 yr old boy. He has loved listening to the stories and the narrative to set the scene. Some audio books are poorly described and lack content, however, these were the opposite and he is now saving up for some more.... a great present!
Format:Paperback
In this story there is a theft, a fire and a missing violin.
In the end, like a number of Secret Seven books, there are no real villains. After a stern talking-to from Peter's father, Lucas, the thief, is seen as a "good sort" and let off the hook, and the expensive stolen violin is returned to the shop owner without question. Then the Seven work hard for the rest of the holidays, doing chores to earn money to pay for a new violin for little Benny, the victim.
The story is the tenth book in the series and it neatly paves the way for a series of books which are alike but more complex storylines to come. I would definitely rate this book: 8.5/10.
