My Thoughts:

The kids enjoyed this book more than I did. The plot itself was pretty good, three boys in a cabin, someone knocking on the cabin door in the middle of the night during a storm, a mysterious stranger, a theft and some missing diamonds. But there were parts of the story I did not follow well. I read it to my five and eight year old, and they were eager to read it all, and kept asking me to keep going. But myself... I had to go back and re-read a few parts that I did not completely get the first time. I guess for a kids story it was quite captivating though. One thing I liked about the characters though was that they were brave, compassionate, and trusting of each other.  The boys were loyal to their friends. The author also incorporated the idea, that regardless of what kind of home you are brought up in or  your circumstances, you can become who you want to be. That is great encouragement for kids now days. Overall, I'd say most kids would enjoy this book.
