A Kid's Review
I read Strange Mysteries From Around The World, by Seymour Simon.
I would only recommend this book for non-frequent readers. It has 9 stories which can be read separtly.You should only read this book for a couple minutes a day, whenever you have time. I don't think that this is a good book to read continusly.

Some of the stories were very good, but others I was stuggling to get through. My favorite story in the book was "Oak Island". It takes place on , you guessed it, Oak Island in 1795. A boy named Dan Mc Ginns, paddled over to Oak Island, which was then deserted.
While he was there, he saw a pulley and under that pulley the groung was all sunken in.Dan grabs some friends and starts to dig. Will they ever find treasure?
This book has 9 fun unsolved mysteries about factual stuff. So get ready to think hard!

This review is from: Strange Mysteries from Around the World (Paperback)
My nephew was not at all interested in this book as it didn't shed any light on the mysteries so it was too open ended. I would not recommend it.

Strange Mysteries from Around the World is a great book for anyone. It has 9 unsolved mysteries that make you really think. It is reading that is fun while you are learning. Imagine photographing things that are invisible, or a crystal skull that is said to have magic powers. Also people walking on fire and how they do it. You hear why scientists think why these things happen. Most of these myseries will never be solved, and that is what makes you think. This is a great book for all ages and very fun. If you like reading that really makes you think then you'll love this book!
