My daughter is obsessed with these books. They’re below her reading level as a 4th grade who’s reading high school level books. But she loves them and the mystery.

My son loves these books. Great read for him. He's 8. It holds his attention. He reads it from cover to cover at one time. As a parent it's great to have a child that loves to read. I would recommend this book.

These mystery books are amazing... I finish each one in two days. I must say that these books for kids are going to be the most popular mystery books for ages... Can't wait to read the next one. When I have to go to sleep I just can't put any of the books down... They inspire me.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Relationships
Reviewed in the United States on December 21, 2018
As always, the book features good friendships and good child-adult relationships. Since Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose go to the small, made-up country of Costra, I would have liked more variety between Costra's foods and customs and America's. Overall though, I enjoyed the story and think it's a good read for 1st and 2nd graders.

I love figuring out these mysteries with my kids! And this was great as far as setting - it’s in India. And the final clue had me stumped until the end!

シリーズ第25弾です（＊＾＾＊）

今回、Dinkたちは第11弾「K」に登場したSammiの国Costraに遊びにいきます。

とにかくすごいの一言のCostraでのVacationです（＊＾＾＊）

オウムなんかが飛び交い、海にはカラフルな魚でいっぱい！！モカも行きたーいと思ってしまいます。

でも、やっぱり事件は起きます。銀行に預けてあったSammiのパパの金塊が盗まれてしまいます。

盗まれ方もすごーいと思うし、モカは今回のDinkの気づきには脱帽です（＊＾＾＊）

なるほどね！って感じですよ
