Edgar Allan's Official Crime Investigation Notebook by Mary Amato is a wonderful book to read together with family and friends. It's about mysteries, friends, crimes, and poems. You might think that friends and poems don't really go together with crimes and mysteries but the author does a great combination.
I like the end of the book where it talks about how the author chose the character's names according to famous people. The main character is named after Edgar Allan Poe. Also, the poems that the "robber" leaves are based on actual poems that are written.
Isaac would give this book 9 crime investigation notebooks out of 10. Eden says she'd give the author a 9 for the book, but a 10 for creativity.
Book recommendation by Isaac and Eden
You know, I walked away from the book at the bookstore for some of the very reasons you liked it, crimes and mysteries. But! You caught my attention on the poetry part. May just need to think about taking a second look.
