Editorial Reviews

Review

"Eleanor Estes, with the skill which created the 'Moffats,' has succeeded in composing her hero with enough mischief and daring to be both real and likable."--Christian Science Monitor
--This text refers to the Paperback edition.


Product Description

Nobody believed Hugsy Goode when he prophesied that a tunnel lay beneath the alley until--generations later--Nicholas (alias Copin) and Timothy (alias Tornid) decide to explore. And lo and behold, right under the vine-covered hole outside the house where Hugsy Goode used to live, they find an entrance to adventures beyond their wildest dreams.
A sequel to The Alley.

5.0 out of 5 stars DON'T sit in that chair!, November 5, 2004
By M. Christensen "dmchr2" (Orem, UT United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Tunnel of Hugsy Goode (Paperback)
I read this book out loud to my children (ages 8 & 10). They absolutely loved it and always got SO mad when I stopped reading at the end of the chapter. They just had to know what would happen next (and because I did too, I would often let them stay up late and read another chapter.)

Copin is an 11 year old boy who is slightly mischievous (he just can't help it though, he has so many great ideas,) and Tornid is his 8 year old buddy who loves to play along. Copin and Tornid have been drawing maps of the tunnel under the alley for quite a while before they decide to dig. When they finally uncover the tunnel, they aren't that amazed to find that their maps were quite accurate. They are amazed at what else they find. During the first half of the book, we wondered whether the main characters would really ever find a tunnel. And when they do, you just have to reading because you want to find out what's in the tunnel and why they shouldn't sit in that chair.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hugsy Goode, January 6, 2004
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Tunnel of Hugsy Goode (Paperback)
As the story unfolds in twentieth century Brooklyn, 2 kids look for something to do. Nicholas and Timmy have re-named them selves Copin and Tornid. As a teacher's strike keeps them from school they take a train without permission. A midnight flood and the main mystery a tunnel. I recommend this book because it is not like a normal book with a tunnel instead of a house with a ghost. Eleanor Estes is a wonderful author.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another Great Read From Eleanor Estes, October 23, 2003
This review is from: The Tunnel of Hugsy Goode (Paperback)
This is the long-awaited sequel (re-print) to THE ALLEY; if you have wanted to know whatever happened to the children who filled up the adventures of the first book, THE TUNNEL OF HUGSY GOODE will answer your questions. Not only that, but new protagonists, with unusual code names for themselves, their friends, enemies, and siblings, make this book an exciting read. I would put this one at a reading level of second through fourth grade.
