A book with great suspense and good cliffhangers.
Excellent use of diologue and terrific description of
characters. One of the best books I've read for a while.
"Emily Upham's Revenge" keeps you on the edge of your
seat and I couldn't put it down.Emily Upham is sent to live
with her uncle but her uncle never gets the letter
annoucing her arrivle. Instead,Emily meets meets Seth Marple.
Emily Upham and Seth Marple rob Emily's rich uncle to get the
train fare to get to back to Emily's home in Boston. Many
surprising twists with an excellent surprise ending.

HI READERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our teacher read this book to us. We couldn't stand for it to end. Once, when she stopped our class was chanting "READ IT, READ IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" we chanted so loud you could hear us down the hall. In it a sly and cunning boy (a bit like someone we know) meets a very religious, spoiled, and proper young lady by the name of Emily Ophelia Upham. It truly leaves cliffhangers.

P.S.S. This raiting is dedicated to the children at Melrose Elementry School Jamestown, RI

This book is a really pleasant surprise and states on the back that this book is for ages 11 and up, although I think younger children could read this as well. The illustrations - black & White drawings - really are wonderful and help to bring this story alive. My book is marked "Special Edition", so I don't know if this edition is the only one with the great drawings!
