The Dirty Trick

(4) 1-3 Ghost and Max Monroe series. Illustrated by Kim Smith. Mystery writer Rhoda Remington receives an ominous note. Once again it's up to Max and his bumbling, ghostly great-uncle Larry to save the day. Short chapters divided by subheadings propel the simple mystery plot filled with alliteratively titled characters and obvious clues. New chapter-book readers will appreciate the illustrations and easy-to-follow design, even if some outdated references fly over their heads.
