BONNIE MONTGOMERY IS THE WORLD’S GREATEST DETECTIVE
Not that anyone other than Grampa Banks has heard of her.
But they will have heard of Montgomery Bonbon, the gentleman detective who (apart from the beret and the bristling moustache) looks suspiciously like a ten-year old girl.
Their case
a mysterious death at the Hornville Museum.
MY REVIEW
For all children from 9 to 11 years like reading a funny murder book with young child solving murders, this tops my list for recommendation.
Bonnie Montgomery and her Grampa Banks are visiting Hornville Museum. Ten year old Bonnie is the world’s finest detective stumbles upon a security guard that has been murdered. Bonnie, becomes Montgomery Bonbon when trying to solve a murder. She loves solving mysteries and looking for clues, telling adults what to do.
I’m glad there going to book 2 with another case coming up for Montgomery Bonbon to solve.
I would like to thank Walker Books for sending me this book to read and review.
