Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Max & Maddy and the Bursting Balloons Mystery (Bloomsbury Chapter Books) (Paperback)
In 2010 I gave McCall Smith's books to three of our grandchildren and they enjoyed them. I decided to do the same this year, AT THEIR REQUEST. That is the best testimony.
