Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Gr. 2-4. Even very young readers have heard tales of hidden treasure, and Donnelly relates accounts of real hunts for fabulous wealth to be gleaned from pirate stashes, sunken ships, religious offerings, and even train wrecks. Large print, ample but not overwhelming color illustrations, and a narrative style that communicates the excitement of the search together make this a book readers will find difficult to put down. An excellent choice for those looking for adventure stories as well as those who prefer nonfiction. Sheilamae O'Hara

This review is from: True-Life Treasure Hunts (Step-Into-Reading, Step 5) (Paperback)
I am an 8 year old boy. I definitely loved this book about treasure hunters from around the world and different times. It even has taught me how the treasure got lost.
I am a big fan of Step into Reading. I have been reading them since Level 1 and not one has failed.

My 7 year old is only interested in non-fiction books but does like a bit of mystery. He is a good reader and has read this book several times. I'm very happy to have found this series. They are all excellent.
