Mountain Cabin Mystery
By Max Elliot Anderson
Scott, Al and Ben have completed
and passed wilderness training classes in hopes of being accepted
for a Colorado Wilderness Camping Adventure. When their hopes are
realized, and they actually start the outdoor experience of a lifetime,
they begin to see what all the preparation was about. As they boys
get further into the wilderness of the Colorado Rockies, they leave
the trail for a great photo, and somehow get lost from the other
hikers.
This book has everything; dense fog, an angry,
menacing bear, a dangerous decrepit suspension bridge, the fear
of being lost, terrorists, and oh, boy, are the folks going to be
upset!
Anderson is a genius at exciting plots,
and sympathetic, interesting characters. The boys believe in God,
and the Christian concepts are integrated throughout the story,
but without being preachy. The lessons are presented gently in this
fast-paced action adventure.
This reluctant reader series would be ideal for
sharing and reading aloud for family time or bedtime stories. They
would make wonderful gifts for hours of reading pleasure for your
favorite tweener.
