~☆ A Small Note ☆~ I have reread this book a lot. It is actually the first in my favorite series. I love how complicated it is, and how many times it surprises you. It is my favorite mystery and favorite author. I hope that this book is as awesome to you as it is to me. =] ~@LibraryScout ~☆ Description ☆~ "New York Times Bestseller * National Book Award Nominee * Winner of the Edgar Award for Best Juvenile Mystery It’s wintertime at Greenglass House. The creaky smuggler’s inn is always quiet during this season, and twelve-year-old Milo, the innkeepers’ adopted son, plans to spend his holidays relaxing. But on the first icy night of vacation, out of nowhere, the guest bell rings. Then rings again. And again... Soon Milo’s home is bursting with odd, secretive guests, each one bearing a strange story that is somehow connected to the rambling old house. As objects go missing and tempers flare, Milo and Meddy, the cook’s daughter, must decipher clues and untangle the web of deepening mysteries to discover the truth about Greenglass House—and themselves." —Amazon book description
~☆ ☆~ ~☆ Finding the Book ☆~ I think that this is an intermediately hard book to find. I think it is likely that you can find it at a local library (in audio or paper form), or check it out online through your local library. I do not think that it is likely to be at a school library because it is not very well known. (There is an audiobook form of this book and its sequels.) ~☆ Book Credits ☆~ Written by Kate Milford Jacket Design by Sharismar Rodriguez Cover Art and Illustrations by Jaime Zollars Clarion Books Ages 10-12 (Recommended by Readers) [I think it is actually 10+; all of the people (some of whom are adults) who I know that have read the book loved it. I think that it can be enjoyable to most ages.]
