Summary: Ghost Canoe-Better than it sounds!!!
Comment: The book Ghost Canoe is a mystery written by Will Hobbs, it sounds pretty retarded but it's far from it. This is one of the best books I have ever read. I mean it puts the Harry Potter books to shame. It takes place of the coast of Washington State. And the main character of the book is 14 year old Nathan MaCallister, who is the son of a light-house keeper. There is a ship that crashes on the rocks in front of the shore. The local authorities say no one survived the crash but there is a set of foot prints on the beach. And stuff just does not add up with the crash. The book is pretty easy to understand I would say it's at a sixth grade level. This book is intended for anyone who wants a great action packed mystery all rolled into one.

Summary: From a parent's point of view, Will Hobbs has another hit
Comment: First off, this review will be somewhat biased as Mr. Hobbs was a teacher of mine three years in a row. If the love of reading is a fire, Mr Hobbs is the spark. He kindled the desire to read in countless children during his years as a teacher, partly because he knew us so well, and that is what makes him such a terrific author in his current work- he knows what will get kids to read and keep them reading. My children both read his books, and I read most everything that they read, just to stay in touch with what they are doing. I actually enjoy reading Mr. Hobbs' books as much as they do, the characters are real, the experiences are fresh, and the stories are enough to make me dream of my own youth. I recently moved to the Seattle area, and have explored the area in which Ghost Canoe is set. Mr. Hobbs has done a marvelous job of capturing the mood and mystery of this beautiful corner of our world. His portrayl of the Macaw tribe is true to life (as it was) and helps shed some light on the recent events in their tribe. That alone makes this book a great read for just about any preteen.
