This book was read to me by my second grade daughter. It is certainly one of the better Cam Jansen books. It was a little bit less predictable than some of the other Cam Jansen stories. I would recommend this book to second and third graders, but children older than 3rd grade for the most part would probably think the book is too childish.

I think kids will like this book , because when the monkeys were gone it took a long time to find the monkeys , and there were some clues , and there are adventures. I think it is intreresting because Cam and Eric talk to different people.
That was my favorite thing and I think kids will like it.

You have to love Cam Jansen. When you're a kid, you read all of these stories about magic powers, mystery, and adventure. But everyone tells you magic can't exist. Cam Jansen manages to solve every case without the use of magic... she's a real girl. That's what makes her special and what makes you want to read more and more. Cam Jansen is a real kid superhero, and the thought that a person like her could actually exist... makes her the best kid detective ever! Our family loves Cam Jansen!

I like the book because it is a mystery about three kids
at the zoo. And then Eric (one of the kids) lost his wallet. And that is just the beginning and then the good part comes. I like it too because it is funny.

I still love kids' books and remember reading this as a child. Very enjoyable and clever.. The Cam Jansen series is excellent and readers will also enjoy the Polka Dot Private Eye series by Patricia Reilly Giff and the Something Queer series by Elizabeth Levy. Both series are mysteries similar to Cam Jansen and for the same age group.

I like Cam Jansen books because when she sees something she says, "Click,"and she can remember what it said. In Cam Jansen and the Mystery at the Mankey House, Cam tries to find where the monkeys went. She also has more adventures in it too! Read this book. It is so good!

My daughter and I have read all of the "Cam Jansen" books together. Earlier, in 1st grade, I did most of the reading, but by the end of first grade, she has been reading the whole books to me. They are all well-written and help teach her not only new words, but also to think a bit about the "clues" to the different mysteries. If you like mysteries and want to think a bit during childhood reading, try one of these.

I think kids will like this book, because when the monkeys were gone it took many time to find the monkeys, and there were some clues, and there are adventures. I think it is interesting. At end of story, there was the thief, and he went to jail. And that time when the truck was almost going, Cam stopped that truck, and looked in the back, that was my favorite thing and I think kids will like it.
