5.0 out of 5 stars
an undiscovered gem,
By
This review is from: The Castle Tower Lighthouse (Edgar Font's Hunt for a House to Haunt, Adventure One) (Paperback)
My daughter is 11 and is a huge Lemony Snicket fan. I recently picked up Edgar Font's Hunt for a House to Haunt now that the last Series of Unfortunate Events book came out as an alternative. She read it and LOVED it! She even wanted to change her Halloween trick-or-treat costume to Audrey! And the drawings in the book have very clever clues for the mystery. If you're a parent of a Lemony Snicket reader, pick up Edgar Font. It could just be the next Harry Potter series.

My family and I enjoyed this book immensely. I bought several as gifts for kids (and their families) ranging from 8 1/2 to 13 years old - everyone loved it! Can't wait for the next big adventure.
