The Mystery at the Eiffel Tower (Paris, France) (Around the World in 80 Mysteries (Paperback)) Reviews

  • T

    A fun book that we did as a read aloud… kiddos choice from the library, and my first time reading any of this author’s books. Now it has been written a while back, perhaps that clarifies how sections of it are. Also how the kids (who are so young) are allowed to traverse Paris themselves? That took a bit to wrap my mind around; this mystery was a hit with my kid.

  • Hannah

    Ok, this book was unfortunate. First of all, what proper parents let their children run around with other young children that are practically strangers? They are seven and ten-year-olds! Especially in Paris where they don't speak French and have only a cell phone with them? Also, the ending, it is so so so vague! I think that the author(s) weren't sure how to put the story together and just made an abrupt, mediocrely-explained ending.

  • Susan

    A nice easy mystery series (at least from the looks of this one book--I haven't read anything else by the prolific Marsh). Every chapter has the same structure (kids go to historic place in Paris, kids find clue, kids get chased off). A happy ending! Kids do all the action. Very nice vocabulary repetition throughout the book. All in all, not bad for a formulaic kids series.
